Abstract

Summary This paper presents a framework for the design of a hierarchical Simulator of a robotized sequential technological process. The framework employs concepts of discrerte event simulation modelling. The Simulator consists of two layers: the Simulator of a robot and technological process, and the interpreter and planner of robot tasks. A format specification of both layers is presented. The proposed simulation approach is expected to result in significant improvements in the robot task plan generation and in higher efficiency of a technological process.
