ResumoA reference model for a manufacturing planning and control system (MPCS) is presented, which represents a MPCS as a hierarchical organization of cooperating decision-making units. The model is an abstract specification of an integrated MPCS, and a milestone in its top-down design. Moreover, the model provides a reference for a common terminology and concepts. The model could play the same role in the development of a computerized MPCS that the open systems interconnection reference model of the International Organization for Standardization does in the development of computer networks. This paper proposes a structure as well as a distribution of tasks over the decision-making units in the model. The model is justified on the basis of criteria that should make the model consistent, conceptually uniform and easy to understand.
