However, Petri net models for practical systems can be very large, making it difficult to apply such models to real-life problems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSystem Modeling and Control with Resource-Oriented Petri Nets\u003c\/strong\u003e introduces a new resource-oriented Petri net (ROPN) model that was developed by the authors. Not only does it successfully reduce model size, but it also offers improvements that facilitate effective modeling, analysis, and control of automated and reconfigurable manufacturing systems. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePresenting the latest research in this novel approach, this cutting-edge volume provides proven theories and methodologies for implementing cost and time-saving improvements to contemporary manufacturing systems. It provides effective tools for deadlock avoidance--deadlock-free routing and deadlock-free scheduling. The authors supply simple and complex industrial manufacturing system examples to illustrate time-tested concepts, theories, and approaches for solving real-life application problems. Written in a clear and concise manner, the text covers applications to automated and reconfigurable manufacturing systems, automated guided vehicle (AGV) systems, semiconductor manufacturing systems, and flexible assembly systems. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExplaining complex concepts in a manner that is easy to understand, the authors provide the understanding and tools needed for more effective modeling, analysis, performance evaluation, control, and scheduling of engineering processes that will lead to more flexible and efficient manufacturing systems. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mengchu Zhou,Naiqi Wu\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1439808848\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781439808849\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CRC Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 306\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.20w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eScitech Book News\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2010 pg. 169","brand":"Mengchu Zhou","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48088263557375,"sku":"9781439808849","price":260.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_516928f2-6a37-4fe8-a88f-2f095cdb7a37.jpg?v=1769103944","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/system-modeling-and-control-with-mengchu-zhou-9781439808849","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
