Abstract

Abstract This paper discusses the use of Petri nets in system control. A Petri net-model is developed for a Cellular Manufacturing System (CMS). The system control heuristics can be generated based on this Petri-net model. Some of the controls of the cell operation is demonstrated through the application of Petri nets. These controls include the control of work-in-process (WIP) inventory within cells and stock-on-hand (SOH) in the cells, the control of part-changes, and the control of disturbance handling.
