Petri net-based approach to intelligent control synthesis of FMS

Because the classical control theory does not give satisfactory results in the DEDS (discrete event dynamic systems) control systems synthesis, especially in analytical terms, and because such systems are very important in human life-e.g. flexible manufacturing systems (FMS), transport systems, communications systems, etc.-another approaches are wanted. The main aim of this paper is to point out a simple approach leading to a very simple dealing with the FMS (as a kind of the DEDS) modelling and intelligent control problems solving. On that way imbedding some results of applied artificial intelligence, especially the rule-based knowledge representation and simple form of automatic reasoning, is used.
