Abstract

A method of processing tasks having at least one action server and at least one production server (SP) in which the action servers execute the control of the tasks in real time and in a direct and priority manner. This control is master and integrates all the changes of states that may have occurred on the internal elements of the system and on the external elements. The missing elements corresponding to these changes of state are classed into four categories: internal or external, deterministic or nondeterministic. For each of these categories a method of resolution is formulated at the level of the production server (SP). The system includes at least two data transmission buses: a ‘process’ bus (BP) linking the action servers and action terminals and desks (R1, R2, . . . ) as well as the production server (SP) and a video bus (BVDO) linking the production servers (SP), the production desks and terminals (P0, P1, . . . ) and the augmented reality server (SRA).

Claims

1. Method for processing the tasks of an automated system comprising at least one assembly of at least one action terminal forming at least one action server capable of executing task control in real time and in a direct and prioritized way by implementing at least one regulation of quantities to pre-established setpoints making use of the internal parameters of the system that are informed by sensors, wherein:

on the one hand, the set of the parameters internal to the system are considered and, on the other hand, the set of the parameters external to the system liable to have an influence on the operation of the system, of which at least some of said parameters are liable to assume a state affecting the operation of the system, are considered,

all the state changes liable to occur on all said parameters internal to the system and on all said parameters external to the system are taken into account and a methodology of resolution is developed corresponding to said state changes according to whether these state changes are predictable or not, suitable for allowing the real-time control of the system by said action server to continue without it finding itself in a blocked situation awaiting human intervention.

2. Method for processing the tasks of an automated system according to claim 1, wherein all the parameters internal and external to the system the state change of which is predictable are listed and in that the state changes of said parameters internal and external to the system the state change of which is predictable are processed according to pre-established scenarios introduced into said task control.

3. Method for processing the tasks of an automated system according to claim 1, wherein the state changes of the parameters internal to the system the state change of which is not predictable are processed by performing a collection of data concerning all said parameters and by taking account of the evolution of the values of said parameters in said task control.

4. Method for processing the tasks of an automated system according to claim 1, wherein the state changes of the parameters external to the system the state change of which is not predictable are processed by creating a virtual image anticipated from the state of the environment surrounding the system as a function of a certain number of said parameters, consisting in superimposing on an image representing a real scene of said environment a virtual image representing at least some of said parameters concerning said scene, and by taking account of an evolution of an operational frame of reference of the system based on said anticipated virtual image.

5. Method for processing the tasks of an automated system according to claim 4, wherein the taking account of the evolution of the operational frame of reference of the system is performed by the development of new scenarios.

6. Automated system for processing tasks for implementing the method according to claim 1, comprising an assembly of at least one production terminal, at least one assembly of at least one action terminal forming at least one action server and a production server, wherein said production server is linked to the assembly of at least one action terminal by way of a first data transmission bus and in that said at least one production terminal is linked to the production server by way of a second data transmission bus.

7. System according to claim 6, further comprising an augmented reality server connected to said second data transmission bus.
