Optimization of industrial production systems: contribution of mixed simulation techniques of continuous and discrete phenomena; Optimisation des systemes de production industriels: apport des techniques de simulation mixte de phenomenes continus et discrets

This paper presents an hybrid simulation technique based on Petri nets and supported by the mixed MISS-RdP tool. It introduces the contribution of this technique to the modeling, simulation and prediction of the performances of hybrid systems in order to optimize them at their design state with respect to their productivity and to the mastery of risks. This technique can be applied in particular to the study of production systems. (J.S.)
