- Abstract
- Scheduling requires a large amount of information to produce reliable results. This information is not always available or detailed enough. In a reconfigurable system, many scenarios are possible, which makes it almost impossible to have detailed timing information for every combination of tasks, products, configurations, etc. To improve the availability of information, a methodology is proposed that extends the available input information collected from theoretical estimations and past production runs with data from on-demand emulation runs. Those emulations are conducted on a digital model connected to the real control logic, allowing the collection of information without interrupting the physical system. The configuration of the system for the current product is compared to the configurations in the data store to analyze the similarity, improve the reuse of data, and limit the number of emulations to generate an accurate schedule. The methodology is demonstrated on a reconfigurable near-industrial assembly system.
