Abstract

This paper deals with the problem of System-of-Systems (SoS) modeling whose structure change due to the dynamics of its constituent systems as they are developed in different operating modes. Designed by using multi-model approach, each operating mode represents a process functioning of its system, depending on the resources to activate and requirements to enforce. Studied as a Discrete-Event System (DES), we propose a hierarchical framework for designing suitable switching control for dynamic SoS using the High Level Petri Nets (HLPN). Following a bottom up approach, we model each component first in a separate sheet and then the operating modes. Next, systems are designed by integrating a switching mechanism to commit to different operating modes when switching events occur. Finally, a mechanism for managing systems dependencies inside the SoS is proposed. Algorithms are provided to generate the different layers of HLPN permitting easy implementation of our framework and a flexible manufacturing SoS is used to illustrate our approach.
