Abstract

This paper presents a new approach for modeling discrete manufacturing systems using Petri nets. Starting with the literature review of the classical approaches, this paper describes the new approach known as Activity-Oriented Petri Nets (AOPN). The AOPN approach provides expressive Petri net models that are powerful enough for modeling complex and large-scale manufacturing systems. The AOPN approach provides compact Petri net model too when a large number of resources are used in the manufacturing system. GPenSIM is a software implementation of AOPN on MATLAB platform. Using a flexible manufacturing system as a running example, this paper also shows how a real-life manufacturing system can be modeled and simulated with the GPenSIM software using AOPN approach.
