The problem of combining efficiency with flexibility is the basic challenge faced by the factories of the future. In this paper, the solution is investigated through expert governors that can manage the concurrency of manufacturing processes enabling efficient decentralized control for standard running conditions. Flexible adaptive control is possible when recovery intervention is requested as a result of unsteady occurrences.

Abstract
The problem of combining efficiency with flexibility is the basic challenge faced by the factories of the future. In this paper, the solution is investigated through expert governors that can manage the concurrency of manufacturing processes enabling efficient decentralized control for standard running conditions. Flexible adaptive control is possible when recovery intervention is requested as a result of unsteady occurrences.
