Abstract (2. Language): 
Fieldbus networks such as Foundation Fieldbus FB, Profibus and Controller Area Network CAN are extensively used in modern control system implementations. The control of electrical power plants ranges from mimic panels to computer based systems. In this paper the impact of fieldbus technology in process control of Electro-Hydraulic Governor (EHG) systems used in thermal power generating plants is considered. Centralized access control in fieldbus systems is characterized by the presence of a processing unit acting as Link Active Scheduler (LAS), whose task is to manage the bandwidth, distributing it among a1l the producing devices, and respecting their time constraints. This paper presents the use of neural networks for process scheduling. The proposed model allows several processes to be scheduled simultaneously. The bandwidth is distributed on the basis of a scheduling table containing transmission instants for the information produced by different processes in the system such as to guarantee correct scheduling. The paper implements Boltzmann Neural Networks (BNNs) in LAS for scheduling, synchronization of accessing and control in hard real time systems considering the EHG as an example.
