Supervisory Control with Variable Lookahead Policies: Illustrative Example

  • Chapter
Discrete Event Systems: Modeling and Control

Part of the book series: Progress in Systems and Control Theory ((PSCT,volume 13))

Abstract

We use the Limited Lookahead Policy (LLP) supervisory control scheme of [2, 3, 4, 1] to solve the Cat-and-Mouse problem of [5]. The solution employs the Variable Lookahead Policy (VLP) algorithms of [4]. These algorithms provide an efficient implementation technique of the LLP scheme.
