Abstract
A coordinated distributed discrete-event system consists of a coordinator and two or more subsystems. The coordinator directly influences the dynamics of the other subsystems but the subsystems do not directly influence each other. Coordination control of a coordinated distributed discrete-event system is to synthesize supervisors for the coordinator and for each of the subsystems so that the closed-loop system meets the specification. A characterization of the existence of such supervisors is presented as well as the solution to the problem of supremal supervision.
