The course provides the methodological tools for the representation, analysis and management of industrial automation systems, with specific reference to the class of discrete production systems. For that class of systems, several decision problems are defined and dealt with, in connection with a hierarchical decision framework which includes four decision levels: the strategic level, the tactical level, the operational level, and the real-time control level.
The course provides methods and tools to represent, analyse and control production processes and, in particular, discrete production systems; in this connection, several decision problems at strategic, planning and operational levels will be considered and solved
At the end of the course, the student will be able to suitably represent the dynamics of a discrete production system and to analyse its behaviour through the application of some specific models and methods. The student will be also able to solve some decision problems, in particular tactical-operational planning problems, such as those related to scheduling decisions.
The lectures are mainly realized in the classroom, with some lessons in lab in order to learn about specific software

The exam is composed of two parts, one written and one oral. In the written part, the students should solve 2-3 exercises. It is possible to take the oral exam if the mark of the written part is equal or greater than 18.
During the written exam, the student should be able to apply, to numerica cases, the methods and algorithms of the course. During the oral exam, the student should demonstrate to have learnt the methods presented in the course and to be able to apply such methods in real applicative cases.
