چکیده

A supervisor synthesis technique for Petri net plants with uncontrollable and unobservable transitions that enforces the conjunction of a set of linear inequalities on the reachable markings of the plant is presented. The approach is based on the concept of Petri net place invariants. Each step of the procedure is illustrated through a running example involving the supervision of a robotic assembly cell. The controller is described by an auxiliary Petri net connected to the plant’s transitions, providing a unified Petri net model of the closed loop system. The synthesis technique is based on the concept of admissible constraints. An inadmissible constraint can not be directly enforced on a plant due to the uncontrollability or unobservability of certain plant transitions. Procedures are given for identifying all admissible linear constraints for a plant with uncontrollable and unobservable transitions, as well as methods for transforming inadmissible constraints into admissible ones. When there are multiple transformations of this kind, a technique is described for creating a modified Petri net controller that enforces the union of all these control laws. It is shown how a variety of supervisory control problems can be formulated and solved using the method proposed here. The method is practical and computationally inexpensive in terms of size, design time, and implementation complexity.

Synthesis of supervisors enforcing general linear constraints in Petri nets

Efficient techniques exist for the design of supervisors enforcing constraints consisting of linear marking inequalities. This note shows that without losing the benefits of the prior techniques, the class of constraints can be generalized to linear constraints containing marking terms, firing vector terms, and Parikh vector terms. We show that this extended class of constraints is more express...

A Method for the Synthesis of Liveness Enforcing Supervisors in Petri Nets

Given an arbitrary Petri net structure which may have uncontrollable and unobservable transitions and may be unbounded, the procedure described in this paper generates a supervisor for liveness enforcement. The supervisor is specified as a conjunction of linear marking inequalities. For all initial markings satisfying the linear marking inequalities, the supervised Petri net is live. Moreover, ...

T -Liveness Enforcement in Petri Nets Based on Structural Net Properties

We introduce a semidecidable procedure which, given a Petri net structure and a set T of transitions, synthesizes a supervisor enforcing the transitions in T to be live. We call this liveness property T -liveness. When T equals the total set of Petri net transitions, T -liveness corresponds to liveness. Enforcing only a subset of transitions to be live is useful when some Petri net transitions ...

Supervisory Control of Petri Nets with Uncontrollable/unobservable Transitions Interdisciplinary Studies of Intelligent Systems Supervisory Control of Petri Nets with Uncontrollable/unobservable Transitions

This paper expands upon results of previous research dealing with the supervisory control of Petri net modeled discrete event systems that contain uncontrollable transitions. The concept of unobservable plant transitions is introduced here and incorporated into the controller design procedure. New conditions are developed which govern the existence of controllers for these problems. Two procedu...
