Structural analysis and control of flexible manufacturing systems

"This work develops the theory of FMS structural analysis and control. Structural analysis in discrete event systems refers to the characterization of states and regions in the system state space which are logically inconsistent with ""normal"" system operation. The structural characteristics of an FMS strongly affect its behavior and performance. The primary FMS structural concern is deadlock. Deadlock is the situation in which there is a set of jobs where each job in the set is awaiting buffer capacity occupied by another job in the set."
