Recently, methods have been proposed for obtaining the ladder logic diagram (LLD) based
on the Petri net (PN). However, those resulting LLD are usually not in compact forms …

This paper presents a systematic approach for the design and implementation of the
sequence controller in manufacturing systems. By employing the IDEF0, we construct the …

As automated manufacturing systems become more complex, the need for an effective
design tool to produce both a high level discrete event control system (DECS) and a low …
