These can have many different roles, going from describing problems, so as to understand them better, to predicting how they will evolve. This last aspect requires the representation of the phenomenon’s dynamics, which allows for the chosen model’s evolution over time to be followed. In order to accomplish this, the problem can be presented at different scales. Roughly speaking, it can be said that there are two main scales: the microscopic scale, which is centered on the modeling of individuals, and the macroscopic scale, which relies on mathematical theories proposed in the context of dynamic systems.

Being able to simulate the propagation of such diseases inside an hospital and to track them is therefore important to fight and avoid them. The Pyocyanic Bacillus is a frequent example of such a disease. It is important to understand how such bacteria propagate since more and more of their strains become antibiotic resistant. Therefore we must not only be able to treat them, but also to block their diffusion to avoid them. The work presented here consist in a simulation of the propagation of pyos inside an hospital taking spatial problems into account, and allowing to better understand the infection diffusion mechanisms and to propose some means to circumvent it. The simulation considers both the spacial representation of the hospital, and the different actors, healthcare workers, patients and visitors.

Then because of resulting larger complexity over passing human operator capability, the system can no longer be only guided and controlled at trajectory level. A larger and more global delegation should be given the system at decision making, and it is proposed here to manage it at task level usually corresponding to well identified sequences in system operation. To succeed in this transfer attention has to be paid to the fact that there are in general many trajectories for one prescribed task. So a new and completely transparent link should be established between trajectory and task controls, both acting at their own levels in the system. The corresponding double loop control is developed here, and consists mainly in an asymptotically stable functional control acting at trajectory level as a whole, and explicit in terms of main system power bounds guaranteeing robustness inside a ball the size of which is the manifold generated by all system trajectories for task accomplishment. At higher level a new decision control based on trajectory utility for succeeding in the task is proposed, the role of which is to maintain system dynamics inside the selected trajectory manifold corresponding to task. With this two step control, human operator role is eased and can be more oriented toward higher coordination and maintenance management.
