  • Publication number: 20230256603
    Abstract: A control system includes multiple devices each of which independently executes one or more of multiple processes with respect to multiple objects, a memory that stores a setting specified by a user about an execution condition of one or more of the multiple processes, and processing that acquires a current status of the control system, dynamically determines a process to be executed next among the multiple processes based on the setting and the status, and controls the devices.
