Benchmarking Simulation Software Capabilities Against Distributed Control Requirements: FlexSim Vs AnyLogic
Résumé
Industry 4.0 communication and data management technologies enable the development of distributed, product driven control architectures, where intelligent products can play active roles in manufacturing control pro-cesses. Although simulation is a widespread practice to test, evaluate, com-pare and validate different design alternatives, there is still a lack of papers that assess and discuss the capabilities of available simulation software to meet and implement the requirements of such distribution as a design alter-native. This paper provides an analysis of distributed, product driven control requirements and benchmarks them against the capabilities of two commer-cially available simulation software, namely FlexSim and AnyLogic. A com-parison of the strengths and weaknesses of each software is provided through a case study.
