 Title:
PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF CONTROL ARCHITECTURES
 
Summary :
ABSTRACT. THE DESIGN PHASE OF AUTOMATIC MANUFACTURING SYSTEMS COMPRISES MANY DIFFERENT TASKS AND AMONG THEM STANDS THE DESIGN OF A CONTROL ARCHITECTURE. ACTUALLY FOR HIGHLY DISTRIBUTED CONTROL SYSTEMS THE CHOICE FOR A SPECIFIC ARCHITECTURE HAS GREAT IMPACT ON THE OVERALL SYSTEM S LIFE CYCLE. IN SUCH CASES THE DESIGNER HAS TO PROPOSE EARLY ENOUGH IN THE SYSTEM S DESIGN PHASE A CONTROL ARCHITECTURE WHICH MUST FULFILL FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS SUCH AS RESPONSE TIME. THIS WORK PRESENTS A FRAMEWORK FOR VALIDATING DISTRIBUTED CONTROL ARCHITECTURES BY MODELLING THE SYSTEM S DISTRIBUTED FEATURES WITH TOOLS FROM STRUCTURED ANALYSIS AND FURTHER TRANSLATING ITS DYNAMIC BEHAVIOR INTO TIMED COLORED PETRI NETS MODELS FOR SIMULATION. A CASE STUDY IS PROVIDED AS AN APPLICATION IN A DIDACTIC AUTOMATIC PLATFORM. KEYWORDS: DISTRIBUTED CONTROL, SIMULATION, TIMED COLORED PETRI NETS, RESPONSE TIME
