© 2018 The authors and IOS Press. Although it is not uncommon to have a predictive model of a factory, these models are often simplistic in nature. Such models rarely reflect the current operating performance of the system, use simple and separate da...

Process Plan Controllers for Non-Deterministic Manufacturing Systems (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Felli, P., De Silva, L., Logan, B., & Ratchev, S. (2017). Process Plan Controllers for Non-Deterministic Manufacturing Systems. In Proceedings of the Twenty-Sixth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence (1023-1030). https://doi.org/10.24963/ijcai.2017/142

Determining the most appropriate means of producing a given product, i.e., which manufacturing and assembly tasks need to be performed in which order and how, is termed process planning. In process planning, abstract manufacturing tasks in a process... Read More about Process Plan Controllers for Non-Deterministic Manufacturing Systems.

Toward process control from formal models of transformable manufacturing systems (2017)
Journal Article
Bakker, O. J., Chaplin, J. C., de Silva, L., Felli, P., Sanderson, D., Logan, B., & Ratchev, S. (2018). Toward process control from formal models of transformable manufacturing systems. Procedia CIRP, 63, 521-526. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.procir.2017.03.159

The automation and flexibility of production systems is a key step towards improved profitability and competitiveness in high labour cost areas, when producing high-complexity, low-volume products. In the Evolvable Assembly Systems (EAS) project, the... Read More about Toward process control from formal models of transformable manufacturing systems.

There is a rising demand for customised products with a high degree of complexity. To meet these demands, manufacturing lines are increasingly becoming autonomous, networked, and intelligent, with production lines being virtualised into a manufacturi...
