Abstract
The Automated Manufacturing Research Facility (AMRF) is being established at the National Bureau of Standards. This manufacturing testbed provides a means for conducting research in automated metrology and interface standards for the factory of the future. A five layer control hierarchy has been proposed to manage the real-time control of this facility. A careful examination of the functions performed at each level within this hierarchy indicates that a standard internal structure for control modules is possible. This paper describes the internal structure, external interfaces, and implementation techniques for such a production control module which can be utilized at each level in this hierarchy.Proceedings Title
