Book Control of Discrete Event Systems

Download or read book Control of Discrete Event Systems written by Carla Seatzu and published by Springer. This book was released on 2012-07-27 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Control of Discrete-event Systems provides a survey of the most important topics in the discrete-event systems theory with particular focus on finite-state automata, Petri nets and max-plus algebra. Coverage ranges from introductory material on the basic notions and definitions of discrete-event systems to more recent results. Special attention is given to results on supervisory control, state estimation and fault diagnosis of both centralized and distributed/decentralized systems developed in the framework of the Distributed Supervisory Control of Large Plants (DISC) project. Later parts of the text are devoted to the study of congested systems though fluidization, an over approximation allowing a much more efficient study of observation and control problems of timed Petri nets. Finally, the max-plus algebraic approach to the analysis and control of choice-free systems is also considered. Control of Discrete-event Systems provides an introduction to discrete-event systems for readers that are not familiar with this class of systems, but also provides an introduction to research problems and open issues of current interest to readers already familiar with them. Most of the material in this book has been presented during a Ph.D. school held in Cagliari, Italy, in June 2011.

Book Synthesis and Control of Discrete Event Systems

Download or read book Synthesis and Control of Discrete Event Systems written by Benoît Caillaud and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims at providing a view of the current trends in the development of research on Synthesis and Control of Discrete Event Systems. Papers col lected in this volume are based on a selection of talks given in June and July 2001 at two independent meetings: the Workshop on Synthesis of Concurrent Systems, held in Newcastle upon Tyne as a satellite event of ICATPN/ICACSD and organized by Ph. Darondeau and L. Lavagno, and the Symposium on the Supervisory Control of Discrete Event Systems (SCODES), held in Paris as a satellite event of CAV and organized by B. Caillaud and X. Xie. Synthesis is a generic term that covers all procedures aiming to construct from specifications given as input objects matching these specifications. The ories and applications of synthesis have been studied and developped for long in connection with logics, programming, automata, discrete event systems, and hardware circuits. Logics and programming are outside the scope of this book, whose focus is on Discrete Event Systems and Supervisory Control. The stress today in this field is on a better applicability of theories and algorithms to prac tical systems design. Coping with decentralization or distribution and caring for an efficient realization of the synthesized systems or controllers are of the utmost importance in areas so diverse as the supervision of embedded or man ufacturing systems, or the implementation of protocols in software or in hard ware.

Book Embedded Supervisory Control of Discrete event Systems

Download or read book Embedded Supervisory Control of Discrete event Systems written by Yue Yang and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this work we propose to implement supervisory control by embedding control in the plant Finite State Machine (FSM). Supervisory control is introduced by extending the plant with boolean variables, guard formulas and updating functions. Boolean variables are used to encode the supervisor's states. Event observation is captured by a set of boolean functions that update the values of boolean variables, and control is introduced by guarding events with boolean formulas. The resulting Extended Finite State Machine (EFSM) implements the supervisory control map in the sense that the languages closed and marked by the EFSM are equal to those of the supervised system. After studying embedded supervisory control under partial observation, centralized and decentralized control architectures are analyzed. It is shown that the coobservability condition remains necessary and sufficient for the existence of decentralized supervisors. An application of our approach in the synthesis of communication protocols is presented.

Book Decentralized Supervisory Control of Reactive Discrete event Systems

Download or read book Decentralized Supervisory Control of Reactive Discrete event Systems written by Liang Du and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thesis we propose to apply Ramadge-Wonham supervisory control theory to Reactive Discrete-Event Systems (RDES). A reactive system continually interacts with its environment at the speed dictated by the latter. We will first present our decentralized RDES architecture, which is based on Input/Output (I/O) automata model. After introducing safety and progress, we define the corresponding centralized and decentralized supervisory control problems concerning both safety and progress. We explain through examples why the existing results in supervisory control theory cannot be directly applied. Substitute sufficient and necessary conditions for the existence of decentralized solutions are given. In the special case where only safety is considered, we also study centralized and decentralized supervisory control problems, and present more straightforward sufficient and necessary conditions for the existence of their solutions. An example is presented to illustrate how decentralized RDES are modeled, how decentralized components co-operate with each other, and how the revised decentralized supervisory control theory can be applied to the study of RDES.
