Overview
- Gives the student reader a clear a clear introduction to discrete-event systems, Petri nets, automata and max-plus algebra
- Provides the academic researcher with coverage of the latest research in problems of most current interest in supervisory control and fault diagnosis in distributed and decentralized systems
- Industrial case studies show practitioners approaches for dealing with problems of interest in industrial applications

About the editors
Manuel Silva Suárez is full Professor of System Engineering and Automatic Control in the Computer Science and System Engineering Department of the University of Zaragoza. He has been active in the area of discrete-event systems since the late 1970s, being (co)author of several books. He has published more than two hundred papers on modelling, analysis (verification and performance evaluation), synthesis (different kinds of control approaches) and implementation (eventually fault-tolerant) of Petri nets as well as a few on process algebras and their relation to net models and analysis techniques. Recently, he has been particularly interested in the fluidification of Discrete Event Systems. He has participated actively in the organization of more than one hundredinternational conferences related to automatic control, computer science and operations research, several of these (related to IEEE, IFAC, EATCS…) in Zaragoza. He has organized special tutorials days on discrete event systems modelling, analysis and control for many international conferences. He has been a member of the steering committees of conferences like: International Conference on Petri Nets and Other Concurrency Models; International Workshop on Discrete Event Systems (retiring as chairman in September 2010); IFAC International Conference on Analysis and Design of Hybrid Systems, he is/has been involved in editing journals in Europe (e.g., The European Journal of Control), USA (e.g., IEEE Transactions on Robotics and Automation and Discrete Event Systems), and Japan (IEICE Transactions On Fundamentals of Electronics, Communications and Computer Sciences).
Jan van Schuppen has been active in the area of control of discrete-event systems since the early 1980s. He has published many papers on control of distributed/decentralized discrete-event systems. He has twice presented a special topics course on control of discrete-event systems. Otherwise his research interests include system theory and systems identification, control of stochastic systems, control of distributed/decentralized systems, for many classes of deterministic and stochastic systems. He is affiliated with the research institute CWI in Amsterdam, The Netherlands and with the Department of Mathematics of the Delft University of Technology. He is currently Co-Editor of the journal Mathematics and Control, Signals, and Systems, was a Department Editor of the journal Discrete Event Dynamic Systems, and was an editor at large of the IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control.
