    Supervisor Localization of Discrete-Event Systems based on State Tree Structures

    Recently we developed supervisor localization, a top-down approach to distributed control of discrete-event systems in the Ramadge-Wonham supervisory control framework. Its essence is the decomposition of monolithic (global) control action into local control strategies for the individual agents. In this paper, we establish a counterpart supervisor localization theory in the framework of State Tree Structures, known to be efficient for control design of very large systems. In the new framework, we introduce the new concepts of local state tracker, local control function, and state-based local-global control equivalence. As before, we prove that the collective localized control behavior is identical to the monolithic optimal (i.e. maximally permissive) and nonblocking controlled behavior. In addition, we propose a new and more efficient localization algorithm which exploits BDD computation. Finally we demonstrate our localization approach on a model for a complex semiconductor manufacturing system

    Automatic Reconfiguration of Untimed Discrete-Event Systems

    This work introduces a general formulation of the reconfiguration problem for untimed discrete-event systems (DES), which can be treated directly by supervisory control theory (SCT). To model the reconfiguration requirements we introduce the concept of reconfiguration specification (RS); here reconfiguration events (RE) are introduced to force a transition from one system configuration to another. Standard SCT synthesis is employed to obtain a reconfiguration supervisor (RSUP) in which designated states serve as the source states for RE. The reconfiguration problem itself is formulated as that of establishing guaranteed finite reachability of a desired RE source state in RSUP from the current state in RSUP at which a change in configuration is commanded by an external user. The solvability (or otherwise) of this reachability problem is established by backtracking as in standard dynamic programming.Comment: 2017 14th International Conference on Electrical Engineering, Computing Science and Automatic Control (CCE
