Abstract
The production system is an economic system managed by man and composed of man. The subsystems of the production system can be divided into reactive responsive and purposeful ones. On the basis of a multitude of components constituting purposeful systems (people) the productions systems as economic systems can be divided into elementary, simple and complex ones. The computer is an artificial system, capable of data storing and processing, or respectively capable of directly causing changes in states of other systems. One can distinguish two computer functions, namely an information function which consists of the intellectual preparation of human actions, and an interference function consisting of the technical causing of changes in states of other systems. So in speaking of the computer-aided management of production systems one implies such a human interference in the behaviour of production systems and their subsystems which is made by the aid of the computer. This interference may refer to reactive and responsive systems (subsystems) as well as to purposeful systems, i.e. people. It implies various applications of the computer in both functions.
