Abstract
A control device determines, in accordance with a target task that is a process to be executed by a plurality of controlled devices, an operation sequence for each of the controlled devices. The operation sequence is a time series of predetermined sub-tasks serving as operations capable of being executed by the controlled device or the control device itself. The control device sets, with regard to a sub-task that requires a setting of a time series of control target values with respect to the controlled device, among the sub-tasks included in the operation sequence, a time series of the target values for causing the controlled device to execute the sub-task. The control device controls the controlled devices based on the operation sequence and the target value time-series.
Claims21
A control device comprising:
- a memory configured to store instructions;
- and
- a processor configured to execute the instructions to:
- determine, in accordance with a target task that is a process to be executed by a plurality of controlled devices, an operation sequence for each of the controlled devices, the operation sequence being a time series of predetermined sub-tasks serving as operations capable of being executed by the controlled device or the control device;
- with regard to a sub-task that requires a setting of a time series of control target values with respect to the controlled device, among the sub-tasks included in the operation sequence, set a time series of the target values for causing the controlled device to execute the sub-task;
- and
- control the controlled devices based on the operation sequence and the target value time-series.
A control system comprising:
- a plurality of controlled devices;
- and
- a planning device,
- wherein the planning device comprises:
- a memory configured to store instructions;
- and
- a processor configured to execute the instructions to:
- determine, in accordance with a target task that is a process to be executed by the controlled devices, an operation sequence for each of the controlled devices, the operation sequence being a time series of predetermined sub-tasks serving as operations capable of being executed by the controlled device or the planning device;
- and
- with regard to a sub-task that requires a setting of a time series of control target values with respect to the controlled device, among the sub-tasks included in the operation sequence, set a time series of the target values for causing the controlled device to execute the sub-task.
A control method executed by a computer that controls a plurality of controlled devices, comprising:
- determining, in accordance with a target task that is a process to be executed by the controlled devices, an operation sequence for each of the controlled devices, the operation sequence being a time series of predetermined sub-tasks serving as operations capable of being executed by the controlled device or the computer;
- setting, with regard to a sub-task that requires a setting of a time series of control target values with respect to the controlled device, among the sub-tasks included in the operation sequence, a time series of the target values for causing the controlled device to execute the sub-task;
- and
- controlling the controlled devices based on the operation sequence and the target value time-series.
