    Fault-Tolerant Control of Discrete-Event Systems With Lower-Bound Specifications
    (Elsevier, 2015) Moor, Thomas; Schmidt, Klaus Werner
    Fault-tolerant control addresses the control of dynamical systems such that they remain functional after the occurrence of a fault. To allow the controller to compensate for a fault, the system must exhibit certain redundancies. Alternatively, one may relax performance requirements for the closed loop behaviour after the occurrence of a fault. To achieve fault tolerance for a hierarchical control architecture, a combination of both options appears to be advisable: on each individual level of the hierarchy, the controller may compensate the fault as far as possible, and then pass on responsibility to the next upper level. This approach, when further elaborated for discrete-event systems represented by formal languages, turns out to impose a hard lower-bound inclusion specification on the closed-loop behaviour. The present paper discusses the corresponding synthesis problem and presents a solution. (C) 2015, IFAC (International Federation of Automatic Control) Hosting by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Computation of Fault-Tolerant Supervisors for Discrete Event Systems
    (IFAC Secretariat, 2013) Sülek, A.N.; Schmidt, K.W.
    Fault-tolerance addresses the problem of operating a system even in case of faults. In this paper, we study fault-tolerance in the supervisory control framework for discrete event systems (DES). We consider DES, where certain events might no longer be possible in case a fault happens. In this setting, we first identify necessary and suficient conditions for the existence of a supervisor that realizes a given behavioral specification both in the non-faulty and in the faulty case. We further show that it is possible to determine a supremal fault-tolerant sublanguage in case the existence condition is violated. Finally, we propose an algorithm for the computation of this sublanguage and prove its correctness. Different from existing work, our fault-tolerant supervisor allows fault occurrences and system repairs at any time. The concepts and results developed in this paper are illustrated by a manufacturing system example. © 2013 IFAC.

    Abstraction-Based Supervisory Control for Recon-Gurable Manufacturing Systems
    (IFAC Secretariat, 2013) Khalid, H.M.; Kirik, M.S.; Schmidt, K.W.
    Reconfiguration control for discrete event systems (DES) is concerned with the realization of different system configurations by modification of the supervisory control loop. In this paper, we study the reconfiguration supervisor design for reconfigurable manufacturing systems (RMS) that comprise multiple components. We construct a modular supervisor for each configuration and system component in order to realize each active configuration and to quickly change between configurations. Different from the existing literature that is focused on monolithic design, our method is abstraction-based, and, hence applicable to large-scale DES. © 2013 IFAC.

    The Controllability Prefix for Supervisory Control Under Partial Observation With an Application To Fault-Tolerant Control
    (Elsevier, 2017) Moor, Thomas; Schmidt, Klaus Werner
    The controllability prefix is known as a useful concept for the discussion and solution of synthesis problems in supervisory control of cp-languages, i.e., formal languages of infinite-length words. There, the controllability prefix is defined as the set of all finite-length prefixes that can be controlled to satisfy prescribed liveness and safety properties. In this paper, we discuss a variation of the controllability prefix to address supervisory control under partial observation for regular *-languages, i.e., formal languages of finite-length words. We derive algebraic properties that are useful for a quantitative analysis on how an upper-bound language-inclusion specification affects achievable lower-bound specifications. Our study is motivated by the synthesis of fault-tolerant supervisory controllers, where the possible occurrence of a fault may restrict the achievable pre-fault behaviour so severe, that a relaxation of the upper-bound specification becomes a practical option. As our study shows, such a relaxation can be systematically constructed in terms of the controllability prefix. (C) 2017, IFAC (International Federation of Automatic Control) Hosting by Elsevier Ltd.
