Abstract
Teleoperated systems are increasingly being used to perform tasks over the Internet. This paper discusses this general idea in terms of the control needs, constraints and concepts that are associated with the notion of Internet-based assembly. A discrete-event simulation is used to investigate several supervisory control strategies used for the assembly of a standardized fixture (the Cranfield) using teleoperated commands issued over the Internet. Results are presented relating the assembly performance, control strategy and Internet communication performance
