Simulation and VR based verification of control architectures for cellular facility logistics systems

Abstract

The complexity of cellular facility logistics systems and their control architectures suggests the usage of modern simulation and VR-techniques to evaluate a system’s performance and its guaranteed future beforehand. In this paper, we present a concept for a simulation system for the VR-based verification of control architectures of cellular facility logistics systems. We describe the creation of a simulation model and give an overview over the constituents of the simulation, especially the coupling of the real control architecture of the agent based system to the simulation.
