In this paper we investigate multi-agent discrete-event systems with partial observation. The agents can be divided into several groups in each of which the agents have similar (isomorphic) state transition structures, and thus can be relabeled into the same template. Based on the template a scalable supervisor whose state size and computational cost are independent of the number of agents is designed for the case of partial observation. The scalable supervisor under partial observation does not need to be recomputed regardless of how many agents are added to or removed from the system. We generalize our earlier results to partial observation by proposing sufficient conditions for safety and maximal permissiveness of the scalable least restrictive supervisor on the template level. An example is provided to illustrate the proposed scalable supervisory synthesis.

In this paper, we propose a new automaton property of N-step nonblockingness for a given positive integer N. This property quantifies the standard nonblocking property by capturing the practical requirement that all tasks be completed within a bounde
d number of steps. Accordingly, we formulate a new N-step nonblocking supervisory control problem, and characterize its solvability in terms of a new concept of N-step language completability. It is proved that there exists a unique supremal N-step completable sublanguage of a given language, and we develop a generator-based algorithm to compute the supremal sublanguage. Finally, together with the supremal controllable sublanguage, we design an algorithm to compute a maximally permissive supervisory control solution to the new N-step nonblocking supervisory control problem.
In the supervisory control framework of discrete-event systems (DES) with infinite behavior initiated by Thistle and Wonham, a supervisor satisfying the minimal acceptable specification and the maximal legal specification is synthesized. However, thi
s supervisor may incur livelocks as it cannot ensure that the infinite behavior under supervision will always visit some marker states. To tackle this problem, we propose the definition of markability by requiring that all infinite cycles include at least one marker state. Then we formulate the problem of $omega-$nonblocking supervisory control of DES with infinite behavior to synthesize an $omega-$nonblocking (i.e. nonblocking, deadlock-free and livelock-free) supervisor. An algorithm is proposed to achieve $omega-$nonblockingness by computing the supremal $*-$controllable, $*-$closed, $omega-$controllable and markable sublanguage. We utilize the example of a robot as a running example.
The supervisory control of probabilistic discrete event systems (PDESs) is investigated under the assumptions that the supervisory controller (supervisor) is probabilistic and has a partial observation. The probabilistic P-supervisor is defined, whic
h specifies a probability distribution on the control patterns for each observation. The notions of the probabilistic controllability and observability are proposed and demonstrated to be a necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of the probabilistic P-supervisors. Moreover, the polynomial verification algorithms for the probabilistic controllability and observability are put forward. In addition, the infimal probabilistic controllable and observable superlanguage is introduced and computed as the solution of the optimal control problem of PDESs. Several examples are presented to illustrate the results obtained.
In this paper we study multi-agent discrete-event systems where the agents can be divided into several groups, and within each group the agents have similar or identical state transition structures. We employ a relabeling map to generate a template s
tructure for each group, and synthesize a scalable supervisor whose state size and computational process are independent of the number of agents. This scalability allows the supervisor to remain invariant (no recomputation or reconfiguration needed) if and when there are agents removed due to failure or added for increasing productivity. The constant computational effort for synthesizing the scalable supervisor also makes our method promising for handling large-scale multi-agent systems. Moreover, based on the scalable supervisor we design scalable local controllers, one for each component agent, to establish a purely distributed control architecture. Three examples are provided to illustrate our proposed scalable supervisory synthesis and the resulting scalable supervisors as well as local controllers.
Discrete event systems (DES) have been established and deeply developed in the framework of probabilistic and fuzzy computing models due to the necessity of practical applications in fuzzy and probabilistic systems. With the development of quantum co
mputing and quantum control, a natural problem is to simulate DES by means of quantum computing models and to establish {it quantum DES} (QDES). The motivation is twofold: on the one hand, QDES have potential applications when DES are simulated and processed by quantum computers, where quantum systems are employed to simulate the evolution of states driven by discrete events, and on the other hand, QDES may have essential advantages over DES concerning state complexity for imitating some practical problems. The goal of this paper is to establish a basic framework of QDES by using {it quantum finite automata} (QFA) as the modelling formalisms, and the supervisory control theorems of QDES are established and proved. Then we present a polynomial-time algorithm to decide whether or not the controllability condition holds. In particular, we construct a number of new examples of QFA to illustrate the supervisory control of QDES and to verify the essential advantages of QDES over DES in state complexity.
