Manufacturing Systems Control Design - A Matrix-based Approach (Paperback, Softcover reprint of hardcover 1st ed. 2006)

This book covers all the steps from identification of operations and resources to the transformation of virtual models into real-world algorithms. The matrix-based approach presented here is a solution to the real-time application of control in discrete event systems and flexible manufacturing systems (FMS), and offers a sound practical basis for the design of controllers for manufacturing systems.
