Stage adaptive control with reference model

The paper considers the adaptive control system with the standard model. It was found that in the case of complex systems management transformed from a one-step actions in a multi-step process. In this case, the reference model is simplified to a step function, specifying the level of achievement of controlled variables at each stage, and the control process is converted to regulation by the deviation. As an example, the development of competencies considered in vocational education. The model in this case reaches a dimension equal to the number of competencies, postulated in the standard, and the number of stages is determined by the number of subjects that appear in the curriculum.
