Abstract
Production systems used nowadays in manufacturing processes can be characterized as stationary, inflexible, production-specific systems with a strongly centralized control. Once such a production system has been built, it is very time and cost demanding to adapt it to new changes in the manufacturing process. On the contrary, the market competition and customer needs impose new requirements on the production systems. There are increasing demands for shorter production times, higher flexibility, reconfigurability and optimal utilization of production facilities. Such demands can be met only by distributed production systems (DPS) with a decentralized organization.
