Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Supervisory control is a general framework of logical control of discrete event systems. A supervisor assigns a set of control-disabled controllable events based on observed events so that the controlled discrete event system generates specified languages. In conventional supervisory control, it is assumed that observed events are determined by internal events deterministically. But, this assumption does not hold in a discrete event system with sensor failures and a mobile system, where each observed event depends on not only an internal event but also a state just before the occurrence of the internal event. In this report, we model such a discrete event systems by a Mealy automaton with a nondeterministic output function. We introduce two kinds of supervisors: one assigns each control action based on a pessimistic policy and the other based on an optimistic one. We show necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of each supervisor.
