%O Report %F gaudin03c %A Gaudin, B. %A Marchand, H %T Supervisory Control of Structured Discrete Event Systems %N 1569 %I IRISA %X In this paper, the control of a class of Discrete Event Systems is investigated. Discrete event systems are modeled by a collection of loosely synchronous Finite State Machines. The basic problem of interest is to ensure the invariance of a set of particular configurations in the system. We provide algorithms that, based on a particular decomposition of the set of forbidden configurations, locally solve the control problem (i.e. on each component without computing the whole system) and produce a global supervisor ensuring the desired property %U http://www.irisa.fr/vertecs/Publis/Ps/PI-1569.pdf %8 November %D 2003
