Abstract :
The design process of control programs that drive the operation of new generation manufacturing systems has to respond quickly to the changes of a evolutionary market. The improvement towards a completely automated design process is actually arising from the field of artificial intelligence. This work presents an application of artificial intelligence planning techniques for the automatic generation of control programs for a manufacturing system expressed as safe and live Petri nets. This system allows for a fast generation of sound results, reducing the cost and duration of the design and development phase of control programs
