The text is designed for engineering students at the senior undergraduate level and first-year students at graduate level, and professionals (R&D engineers in the industry and factory managers). The authors offer a unique effort in presenting a unified and systematic treatment of various modeling methodologies and analysis techniques for performance evaluation of automated manufacturing systems. The text begins with an overview of automated manufacturing systems, and then provides a clear and comprehensive discussion of three principal analytical modeling paradigms: Markov Chains, Queues and Queuing Networks, and Petri Nets. Salient Features • Present the first ever treatment of the mathematical modeling of manufacturing systems. • Offers a unified study of principal analytical modeling paradigms for automated manufacturing systems. • Discusses many recent research contributions in the area of modeling of automated manufacturing systems. • Discusses many recent research contributions in the area of modeling of automated manufacturing systems, including deadlock modeling, transient analysis, queuing network approximations, Petri Net modeling, and integrated analytical modeling. • Provides a large number of exercises and problems.

This monograph presents the state-of-the-art developments in the design of behaviorally and structurally optimal livenessen-forcing Petri net supervisors with computationally tractable approaches. It details optimal supervisory control problems arising in automated production systems and outlines a methodology to achieve the optimality purposes of deadlock prevention via converting a variety of problems under consideration into integer linear programming models. The book includes a reference bibliography at the end of each chapter and a complete index.

Deadlock problems in flexible manufacturing systems (FMS) have received more and more attention in the last two decades. Petri nets are one of the more promising mathematical tools for tackling deadlocks in various resource allocation systems. In a system modeled with Petri nets, siphons are tied to the occurrence of deadlock states as a structural object. The book systematically introduces the novel theory of siphons, traps, and elementary siphons of Petri nets as well as the deadlock control strategies for FMS developed from it. Deadlock prevention methods are examined comparatively. The many FMS examples presented to demonstrate the concepts and results of this book range from the simple to the complex. Importantly, to inspire and motive the reader’s interest in further research, a number of interesting and open problems in this area are proposed at the end of each chapter.

Design of Work in Automated Manufacturing Systems focuses on the need to improve the working conditions in the workplace while at same time putting emphasis on the use of technologies in various industries. The book takes into account how automation has altered the operations of small- and medium-sized firms. The text then presents a comparison of the use of computer-controlled applications in different countries and industries, as well as how these applications have influenced the working conditions of workers as well as the division of work in the workplace. The changes that manufacturing industries have undergone and the adjustments that were made in adopting the use of automated manufacturing systems are also highlighted. Also noted are the changes that computer-aided production systems have done on engineering, including the observation that workers can effectively work in an environment that is partially controlled by computer-controlled applications. However, the text also notes that organizational problems have evolved in firms that have adopted computer-controlled applications. The book can be a source of information for social scientists and those involved in developing computer-controlled applications in organizations.
