In this paper, we address the problem of designing scalable scheduling and routing policies over a time-triggered multi-hop control network, when closing a considerable number of control loops on the same network. The key idea is to formally define by means of regular languages the set of schedules for each control loop that satisfy a given control specification, and to exploit operators on regular languages to compute the set of schedules for the whole system.

Abstract
In this paper, we address the problem of designing scalable scheduling and routing policies over a time-triggered multi-hop control network, when closing a considerable number of control loops on the same network. The key idea is to formally define by means of regular languages the set of schedules for each control loop that satisfy a given control specification, and to exploit operators on regular languages to compute the set of schedules for the whole system. In order to test our methodology, we address a mineral floatation control problem derived from the Boliden (a swedish mining company) mine in Garpenberg, and propose a scheduling solution that can be implemented on systems compliant with communication protocols for wireless networks (e.g. the WirelessHART specification). © 2009 IEEE.Pubblicazioni consigliate
