Recently, the operator modules to control external devices are concerned about automatic management system to process continuously changed signals. They need a efficient data management with high reliability and real time processing. The characteristics of these data are a large volume, a short report interval and asynchronous report time. The typical queries of these systems consist of the current query to search the latest signal value, the snapshot query to search the signal value of a past time, the historical query to search the signal value of a past tine to current. In this paper, we propose the efficient method to manage the above signals by using a file structured database in QNX operating systems. The data communications among the devices are done by Profibus-FMS protocol and the file databases are used for adjusting monitoring frequency and storing signals. The file database adopts a delta version and a periodical back up in due consideration of the resource limit of a small storage and a low computing power in QNX COM(Cabinet Operator Module).

This paper presents a methodology for development of a heterarchical control system in Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMS) environment. A Petri net based model is applied for development of control software. A real-time scheduling methodology for the heterarchical system is also developed and it is used as a software entity in the overall architecture. The partition of generic and specific modules in control software development is emphasized. The control system performs its control tasks in two stages: (1) generation of generic control code and distribution of them to each controller entity prior to system execution; (2) generation of specific control code according to job arrival and its process plan. The control software and the scheduling algorithm are evaluated by a simulation program.

There are active researches on automated guided vehicles(AGV) generally used in flexible manufacturing system(FMS) or automated warehouse systems(AWS). Because existing AGV uses magnetic tapes, electric wire, RF or laser as guidelines, its installation and modification require a lot of money and time. The present study implemented AGV that detects paths marked with 50mm Yellow tape using a mono-color CCD camera. Because it uses color tape, it is easy and inexpensive to install and change lines. This study presented the structure of the developed AGV, the image Processing technique for detecting guidelines by ing the characteristics of color, and the result of operating AGV.

In Strapdown Inertial Navigation System, alignment accuracy is the most important factor to determine the performance of navigation. However by an existing self-alignment method, it takes a long time to acquire the alignment accuracy that we want. So, to attain the desired alignment accuracy in as little as $\bigcirc$ minutes, we have developed the precise multi-position alignment method. In this paper, it is proposed a inertial measurement matching transfer alignment method among alignment methods to minimize the alignment error in a short time. It is based on a mixed velocity-DCM matching method be suitable to the operating environment of vertical launching system. The compensation methods to reduce misalign error, especially azimuth angle error incurred by measurement time-delay error and body flexure error are analyzed and evaluated with simulation. This simulation results are finally confirmed by experimentations using FMS(Flight Motion Simulator) in Lab and the integration test to follow the fire control mission.

본 연구는 Ramadege 와 Wonham 의 Supervisor Control 을 기반으로 한다. 초기 이 이론은 오토마타를 이용하여 모델링 하였으며, 많은 연구가 활발하게 이루어져왔다. 그러나, 유한 오토마타는 병렬처리 및 동기화, 자원공유를 모델링하기 어렵다는 단점이 있다. 유한 오토마타를 기반으로 한 연구는 일반적으로 복잡한 시스템을 모델링 할 때 발생하는 결합 폭발성에 의한 제한성이 있다. 반면, 패트리 넷은 병렬처리나 동기화에 대한 모델링을 하기에 보다 더 강력한 도구이지만, 패트리 넷을 이용한 통합법은 아직까지 광범위하게 연구되지는 않았다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 공장설비(plant)모델과 이 설비에 대해 사용자가 원하는 작업을 명시한 사용자 설계명세 (user specifications)모델을 패트리 넷을 이용하여 모델링하는 방법을 제안한다. 본 연구는 사용자 설계명세에 관련한 폐쇄 회로 패트리 넷(closed-loop PN)을 획득하고자 원시 공장설비 모델에 제어 플래이스(control place)를 추가하는 통합을 실행하기 위한 방법으로 Ghaffari의 영역 이론(Theory of Region )을 이용하여 연구개발 하였다

This paper gives the detail of the work carried out to develop real-time control software for Flexible Manufacturing Systems. A basic design philosophy to implement such software is proposed. The major features are the partitioning of complicated control actions into simplified ones, structured programming and multi-threaded transaction-based tasks. The software operates on the basis of passing task-to-task messages via mailboxes, causing appropriate actions to be taken by each task. Each task represents a separate subprocess so that the subprocesses can be run simultaneously. The task-to-task message could be easily replaced by computer-to-computer communication, using LAN, demonstrating that the software methods developed produce a flexible designs for control software of an FMS. A method of linking such software to simulation software is suggested as a potentially powerful additional design-tool.

Multi-axes driving system is more suitable for FMS(Flexible Manufacturing System) compared with a conventional single-azis driving system. It has some merits such as flexibility in operation, improvement of net working rate, maintenance free because of no gear train, etc. However, studies on position synchronous control for high precision in the multi-axes driving system are not enough. In this paper, a new method of position synchronous control is suggested in order to apply to the multi- axes driving system. The proposed method is structured very simply using speed and position controller based on PID control law. Especially, the position controller is designed to keep position error to minimize by controlling either speed of two motors. The effectiveness of the proposed method is successfully confirmed through several experiments.

This paper deals with a problem on the selection of alternative tools in a flexible manufacturing system (FMS) where a lot of tools are required to produce a large variety of product items. An approach using branch and bound method is proposed to minimize a total number of tools required through the optimal use of the alternative tools. In this approach, tools are initially divided into tool subgroups based on graph theory for the purpose of the effective search of the optimal solution. A small example is also presented to highlight the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Due to the inherent complexity in the CIM operation, achieving the triple, meeting duedates, maximizing machine utilization, and maximizing system throughput simultaneously is practically impossible. Targeting the small-to-medium size industries of Korea, we propose an exrert system that 'provides a good and practical solution to the CIM operation problems. Heavy consideration has given to the real-time and dynamic nature of CIM in the development process of the system. The system is under testing stage at KU-FMS, model CIM plant.

The objective of cell operation in CIM is to maximize system efficiency, not the cell itself. We introduce a cell operation scheme that pursues the direction. For specific cases, work center and AS/RS are closely investigated. Structures of their operation mechanism and methods of job scheduling are introduced along with an expert system developed for the scheme. The cell operation softwares developed are now under test at K.U.FMS, a model CIM plant.
