A Think-Globally-Act-Locally-Based Method of Maximally Permissive Liveness-Enforcing Supervisors for Flexible Manufacturing Systems ⋆

Key Points

• Liveness enforcement improves efficiency in flexible manufacturing systems, supporting better productivity.
• Key metric observed includes decreased operational delays in response to supervisor interventions.
• Assessment used a method focused on maximizing permissiveness for supervisory control in dynamic environments.
• This framework may enable enhanced collaboration in environments that traditionally face rigidity in operations.
