Discrete event simulation can be used for virtual prototyping of new manufacturing facilities. Models built for this purpose must be easy to use, flexible, and provide a realistic...

The basic idea of Soft-Commissioning (SoftCom) is to test industrial control software by connecting a controller, e. g. a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) to a commercial discr...

Event-driven control systems provide interesting benefits such as reducing resource utilization. This paper formulates the optimal boundary and regulator design problem that minim...
It has been observed that there are a variety of situations in which the most popular hybrid simulation methods can fail to properly detect the occurrence of discrete events. In th...
The theory of supervisory control of discrete event systems is extended to the real-time setting. The real-time behavior of a system is represented by the set of all possible time...
