“…He also proposed that there should be a separation between a model that describes a system and the mechanism used to simulate that system. This formalism has been used to support the design and simulation of computer architectures, communications networks, and manufacturing systems (Rozenblit et al 1990), (Thomasma and Ulgen 1988). It provides a formal representation of discrete event systems.…”

Proposed in the paper is an object-oriented modelling (OOM) framework, called a JR-net modelling framework, for automated manufacturing system (AMS) design. The proposed modelling framework, which consists of a graphical modelling tool called JR-net (job resource relation-net) and a modelling building procedure, is the same as the current practice of AMS design and is based on the OOM paradigm. In other words, a virtual prototype of AMS is constructed step-by-step based on a three-phase modelling approach: static layout modelling (object model); job¯ow modelling (functional JR-net model); supervisory control modelling (dynamic model). A functional JR-net model is a directed graph in which the standard resources of an AMS become nodes and job transfers among the resources become the arcs of the graph. A complete (dynamic) JR-net model is obtained by specifying supervisory control requirements using tokens in the functional JR-net model. The usefulness of the proposed OOM framework is demonstrated by applying it to the modelling of an AS/ RS. Also addressed are implementation issues of JR-net models.

“…The concepts underlying OOP can be extended to simulation modeling [Adiga, 1989;King and Fisher 1986;Mize et al 1989; Thomasma and Ulgen 1988;Ulgen et al 19891. In terms of simulation modeling requirements, following the object-oriented paradigm has the important advantage of preserving the bulk of developed code for general use in model building.…”

This paper describes the research efforts in the Center for Computer Integrated Manufacturing at the Oklahoma State University to develop an object-oriented modeling environment. After providing the underlying motivation for the research effort, some of the major research tasks are described. Highlights of this development effort are: physical and information/decision components are modeled separately; a set theoretic formalism is provided; a model specification language is critical; a powerful graphical user interface is essential. Current status and future plans are described.
