Abstract
Intelligent control of discrete parts manufacturing jobs and machinery requires state models for the jobs and the controllers. Different approaches to control have yielded different state models. While a dominant model is yet to emerge, the advantages and shortcomings of the existing models suggest some design principles for future efforts; most importantly, the demarcations between the shop level of control and the workcell level, and between the job, the lot, the controller, and the machine, should be wee-defined.Citation
