Selection of ergatic systems elements functions to ensure their functioning under conditions of destructive influence

Ergatic systems have found application in areas of science and technology where the intervention of a human operator in the work is a prerequisite for ensuring their successful functioning. For the effective operation of the systems and the ability to quickly solve emerging emergencies in the current conditions, it is necessary to choose the optimal set of alternative functions of the multifunctional system elements. The urgency of this problem lies in the fact that a special place among the ergatic systems is occupied by the systems of command and control of the power departments, which are precisely characterized by the presence of multifunctional elements in their structure. It is proposed to use weighted hypergraphs as structural-parametric models of these systems. Due to various destructive effects on the system, the problem arises of choosing the optimal set of functions of the elements of the system. To solve this problem, an optimization selection algorithm based on the use of the branch and bound scheme was developed, and a numerical example is given to illustrate the operation of the presented method. Further development of the ideas presented in this article will be the development of methods for assessing the survivability of ergatic systems of the considered type with various types of destructive effects on them.
