Abstract

In this paper. Conserved nets which are a subclass of Petri nets is proposed to fa­ cilitate the modeling, analysis, and simulation of FMSs. Conserved nets ensure that a Petri net model has the conservativeness property. From the structural characteristics of Conserved nets, liveness conditions are easily obtained. While hardware compo­ nents of FMSs are modeled by using Conserved nets, high-level, real-time control systems in FMSs are separately modeled using the analysis results of the Conserved Petri net model. For the simulation of FMSs, a Petri net model and a high-level control system are integrated so that the high-level control system is responsible to resolve conflicts in the Petri net model. The modeling and simulation procedure is demonstrated with an example machine center.
