Popis: Current manufacturing scheduling and control systems are incapable of coping with complex system dynamics inherent in real-world situations and, hence, human intervention is required to maintain real-time adaptation and optimization. A unique feature of biological intelligent systems is that they build and improve over their communication, decision-making and control structures in real time autonomously. A challenge is now emerging in the design of manufacturing systems where on-line adaptation and optimization become increasingly important. This paper reports on the development of a new integrated intelligent scheduling and control system for an automated manufacturing environment using a multilevel approach. At the first level, a conventional scheduling and control system is considered, then at the second level, a new fuzzy logic mechanism is developed to enable the conventional system to improve and perceive the changes of system parameters adaptively. A new perturbation mechanism is embedded in the th...
