Objetivo Process industries in today's highly competitive global market must reconsider their production control policies and strategies if they are to achieve sustainable production and increase their competitiveness, which is vital to their survival and the economic growth of the European Union. In order to attain sustainable and economically efficient production, it is necessary to take a holistic view of process control and management. This can only be accomplished by integrating product quality, process economy and environmental impact in the next generation process control and optimisation systems. The HIPCON project aims at developing methodology and technology to facilitate transformation of the European industry to adapting holistic process management from a life-cycle perspective. The project results will support long-term transformation of industries promoting a radical increase in the competitiveness and eco-efficiency of the industries. The development of a holistic system clearly requires close co-operation among experts in a variety of fields. Cutting edge research in several different areas is necessary, e.g. economic, environmental and process modelling, multi-objective optimisation, and control theory. Integration of the research is of paramount importance. Implementation requires new methodologies and techniques drawn from modern information technology, computer science, and advanced process control. The high scientific level and complexity means that a very high strategic impact can be expected from a successful project, but that the scientific risks are not negligible. The inter-disciplinary research calls for a comprehensive scientific approach and scientific excellence in several areas. The work is divided in eight work packages, covering management, economic, environmental and process modelling, process control, system integration and dissemination.'
