Optimizing the supervision of intelligent instrument based distributed architectures

The paper introduces the intelligent instrument concept and shows how it is possible to optimise the supervision of intelligent instrument based distributed architectures. In a first step, we show that the services proposed by the intelligent instruments can be organized, according to the constraints of the required application, into a "menu graph". From this graph, we deduce the application supervisory language, which contains all the high level requests satisfying the application constraints. In a second step, we find the optimal sequence of the supervisory language that transfers the system from a given steady state operating system to another one.
