Abstract

Procedural controllers are employed for the automation of event-driven operations in process systems. In this paper a formal definition for these controllers is proposed, using concepts developed from Supervisory Control Theory (SCT). Some of the limitations of the original SCT for the characterisation of the proposed controllers are identified and suitable theoretical modifications are proposed. An example is used to illustrate the ideas presented. Finally, a controller synthesis method is outlined.
