Design of a Robotic Work Cell Using Hierarchical Systems Approach and Visual Components Software by Kanstantsin Miatliuk, Krystian Koc, Atakan Eliacik, Paulo E. Miyagi, Marcosiris A. O. Pessoa

“…The model developed at the conceptual design phase is coordinated with the model created at the detailed design phase within the framework of the Visual Components system. The effectiveness of the proposed HS approach in comparison with other known design, AI, and mathematical methods lies in the possibility of solving RWC synthesis and analysis design problems within the framework of one common formal HS model using an HS coordinator that connects the structure of the system being designed with its function, predicting, in this way, the system’s dynamics in its environment, and performing RWC control. …”
