Quasi-Optimal Control of Manufacturing Systems

Abstract In this paper a mathematical framework of the control theory of manufacturing systems is proposed. All possible plant structures are classified. A mathematical dynamical model which describes the dynamics of a plant is developed. With the help of this model it is shown how the real time control policy which guarantees the stable work of the plant with the quasi-maximal production rate can be designed.
