Equipment Interconnection Models in Discrete Manufacturing

Abstract Information about product flow paths is important for tasks in factory automation. The common CAD/CAE models do not explicitly provide information about product paths. A model for product flows in discrete manufacturing is briefly discussed in this paper.
