Overview
ABSTRACT
Control systems play a major part in the piloting of modern technological systems. They are notably present in numerous industrial and transport systems in which they contribute to the carrying out of complex missions. The analysis methods of operational safety (OS) allow for the anticipation and control of their malfunctions. In this article, an example of application is illustrates the various existing methods of operational safety. It consists of a regulation system of the temperature of an electric furnace composed of a continuous regulator (proportional and integral for instance). A certain number of reminders concerning the Petri networks (PNs) are presented on this occasion, networks which are true models for the description of discrete event systems.
