Supervisor localization procedure can be employed to construct local controllers corresponding to component agents in discrete-event systems. The proposed method in [11] is based on state reduction of a monolithic supervisor with respect to each set of controllable events corresponding to each component agent. A supervisor is localizable if state cardinality can be reduced from the reduced supervisor to each local controller. Although event reduction is an important property, the original supervisor localization procedure did not guarantee event reduction in each local controller comparing to the reduced supervisor. In this paper, we propose a method to localize a supervisor with event reduction in each local controller comparing to the reduced supervisor. State reduction facilitates the implementation of local controllers on industrial systems, whereas event reduction reduces communication traffic between each pair of local controllers.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
