Abstract
An automatic mechanism is developed by which temporal constraints are interpreted in a finite state machine framework, in discrete-event systems. Automatic generation of control programs, and hence computer interpretation of operational rules, is a crucial step towards successful implementation of feedback supervisors, and system performance analysis. A (simplified) real-life flexible manufacturing system example illustrates the discussion.
