Abstract :
This work deals with the description of a design procedure for hierarchical fault tolerant control (FTC) of large, distributed system. Following a functional perspective, a procedure for the modular design of the diagnostic and reconfiguration algorithms which run at different levels of the hierarchy is presented. The whole procedure is applied to an hydraulic benchmark system
