It may correspond to an apprehension of phenomena from different levels of abstraction, different perspectives of analysis, different natures of decomposition of the installation. We have chosen to briefly present two methods whose use in supervision seems immanent to us.

4.1 Multi Flow Modeling method

Lind [52] offers a method called Multi Flow Modeling (MFM) for modeling complex, continuous industrial systems. This method is based primarily on the concept of flow, as its name suggests, but also on the concepts of goals and functions.

This method uses two decomposition...
