As recent production facilities are usually operated with unmanned material-handling system, the development of an efficient schedule with deadlock avoidance becomes a critical problem. Related researches on deadlock avoidance usually focus on real-time control of manufacturing system using deadlock avoidance policy. But little off-line optimization of deadlock-free schedule has been reported. This paper presents an optimization method for deadlock-free scheduling for Job-Shop system with no buffer. The deadlock-free schedule is acquired by the procedure that generates candidate lists of waiting operations, and applies a deadlock avoidance policy. To verify the proposed approach, simulation resultsare presented for minimizing makespan in three problem types. According to the simulation results the effect of each deadlock avoidance policy is dependent on the type of problem. When the proposed LOEM (Last Operation Exclusion Method) is employed, computing time for optimization as well as makespan is reduced.

In general, a deadlock in flexible manufacturing systems (FMSs) is caused by a resource limitation and the diversity of routings. However, the deadlock of industrial controllers such as programmable logic controllers (PLCs) can occur from different causes compared with those in general FMSs. The deadlock of PLCs is usually caused by an error signal between PLCs and manufacturing systems. In this paper, we propose a deadlock detection and recovery (DDR) algorithm to resolve the deadlock problem of PLCs at design stage. This paper employs the MAPN (modified automation Petri net), MTPL (modified token passing logic), and ECC (efficient code conversion) algorithm to model manufacturing systems and to convert a Petri net model into a desired LD (ladder diagram). Finally, an example of manufacturing systems is provided to illustrate the proposed DDR algorithm.

Concurrent competition for finite resources by multiple parts in flexible manufacturing systems(FMS's) and inappropriate initial marking or net structure of Petri net with share resources results in deadlock. This is an important issue to be addressed in the operation of the systems. Deadlock is a system state so that some working processes can never be finished. Deadlock situation is due to a wrong resource allocation policy. In fact, behind a deadlock problem there is a circular wait situation for a set of resources. Deadlock can disable an entire system and make automated operation impossible. Particularly, an unmanned system cannot recover from such a status and a set of jobs waits indefinitely for never-to-be-released resources. In this paper, we proposed a deadlock prevention method using siphon and trap of Petri net. It is based on potential deadlock which are siphon that eventually became empty. This method prevents the deadlock by the control of transition fire and initial marking in the Petri net. An given example of FMS is shown to illustrate our results with deadlock-free.

열악한 환경엣 동작되는 멀티컴퓨터는 요소결함(component faults)이 존재하는 상황에서도 정상적 동작을 보장할 수 있도록 설계되어야 한다. 이를 위한 하나의 방법으로 결함포용 라우팅(fault-tolerant routing) 기법이 고려될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 n-차원 메쉬 네트워크를 기본 토폴로지로 선택하여 이러한 네트워크의 임의의 장소에서 링크결함이 발생했을 경우에도 메시지들을 목적지로 전달시킬 수 있는 결함포용 라우팅 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 결함포용 라우팅 알고리즘은 기본적으로 WH(WormHole)라우팅 방식을 채택하며, deadlock-free를 실현하기 위하여 한 개의 물리적 채널을 공유하는 복수 개의 가상채널들(virtual channels)을 사용한다. 결론적으로 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안된 알고리즘이 널리 알려진 X-Y 라우팅 알고리즘보다 향상된 성능을 갖는다는 사실을 입증한다.

In this paper, we proposed the representation method of specification and the control rules fork FMS by TPL. To increase productivity and resource utilization, it is desirable to have more active jobs in the system, but the more active jobs there are, the more easily deadlock occur. Therefore, it is very important that the real-time deadlock control to disable deadlock. In this paper, we performed the system modeling by the CROPN(Colored Resource -Oriented Petri Net) and the necessary -sufficient condition check to disable deadlock. We proposed the supervisory control system that can be the real-time monitoring for deadlock free through a necessary-sufficient condition by CROPN modelling, and designed the logic controller of the extended process using TPL.

본 연구에서는 교착상태 확인 알고리즘의 성능분석을 위하여 사이폰(siphon) 알고리즘, DAPN알고리즘과 추이적 행렬 알고리즘을 상호 비교한다. 이를 위하여 비교 모델을 설정하여 각 알고리즘을 활용한 결과를 복잡도, 이해도 그리고 신속성 등의 3가지 함수를 이용하여 성능을 분석한다. 서로 다른 개념의 알고리즘을 비교분석에 한계성이 있으나, 동일한 모델에 적용하여 그 효율성을 비교 분석하여 각 알고리즘의 특성들을 분석한다.

자동화 제조 시스템에 시뮬레이션 기법을 사용하기 인해서는 자재취급 시스템의 성과를 동적으로 측정해야만 한다. 다중 에이전트 기술은 제조시스템을 지능화 시키고, 분산처리 된 시뮬레이터 개발에 적합하다. 다중 에이전트 시스템은 하나의 조정 에이전트와 다수의 응용 에이전트들로 구성된다. AGVS 시뮬레이터에 있어 이슈는 운반차량의 대수 결정, 양단방향 흐름에서의 이동경로 결정등과 같은 set-up문제와 운영문제로 구분 지을 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 다중 에이전트 기술을 사용하고, 실시간 교착상태 해법 알고리즘이 포함된 시뮬레이터를 소개한다. 시뮬레이터는 잘 알려진 프로이드(Floyd) 알고리즘을 사용하여 AGVS의 최단 이동경로를 구성된다. 움직이고 있는 차량 에이전트는 조정 에이전트에 의해 실시간 제어로 작동되고, AGV는 경로확인 알고리즘을 사용하여 충돌과 교착상태를 피한다. AGV의 위치는 수평시간 계획법에 근거하여 동적으로 재계산된다. 충돌해소 알고리즘은 어떠한 배치 형태에서라도, 그리고 큰 규모의 문제에서도 AGVS의 운영 중의 주행문제 해결을 보장한다. 시뮬레이터는 AGV들의 AGVS 칸트차트를 통하여 작동정보를 받고, 표현한다. 제안된 알고리즘의 성과와 다중 에이전트 기술을 사용하여 개발한 시뮬레이터는 실험을 통하여 검증된다.

Fault-tolerant gait planning in legged locomotion is to design gaits with which legged robots can maintain static stability and motion continuity against a failure in a leg. For planning a robust and deadlock-free fault-tolerant gait, kinematic constraints caused by a failed leg should be closely examined with respect to remaining mobility of the leg. In this paper, based on the authors's previous results, deadlock avoidance scheme for fault-tolerant gait planning is proposed for a hexapod robot walking over even terrain. The considered fault is a locked joint failure, which prevents a joint of a leg from moving and makes it locked in a known position. It is shown that for guaranteeing the existence of the previously proposed fault-tolerant tripod gait of a hexapod robot, the configuration of the failed leg must be within a range of kinematic constraints. Then, for coping with failure situations where the existence condition is not satisfied, the previous fault-tolerant tripod gait is improved by including the adjustment of the foot trajectory. The foot trajectory adjustment procedure is analytically derived to show that it can help the fault-tolerant gait avoid deadlock resulting from the kinematic constraint and does not make any harmful effect on gait mobility. The post-failure walking problem of a hexapod robot with the normal tripod gait is addressed as a case study to show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

This paper proposes two contributions. One is an analysis for the limit of the subject of goal-directed reactive robot navigation, and the other is an effective navigation method employing the scheme of the subject. The analysis for the subject is presented in order to clarify the limit of the method. On the basis of the analysis, a safety-guaranteeing and deadlock-free reactive navigation method is newly proposed. The proposed method has a simple behavior-based frame such that it can make the required navigation tasks such as obstacle avoidance, deadlock resolving, and etc. with a very small set of behaviors in entirely unknown environments such as a living room, an office, and etc. Some results of experiments show these validities.
