Abstract
This paper gives an overview of existing hybrid manufacturing systems which are developed to overcome the main disadvantage of distributed control systems, non-optimization problem, by either modifying control system structures or gaining access to minimal global information by the means of scheduling. Distinguishing from the both of which, we propose a bottleneck concept to improve the performance of distributed control systems by utilizing bottleneck information as minimal global information during the decision-making process. In order to verify our idea, multiple simulation scenarios as well as a simulation-based fault detection and isolation method are developed in the context of production logistics.
