CBS Improvement of Logistics Performance with Cluster-based Decentralized Control in Material Flow Networks The concept of decentrally controlled production and logistic systems has gained a growing importance as part of Industry 4.0. The previous research activities in this area focused mainly on the development of control algorithms for decision-making and the required information and communication technologies. An additional success factor for decentralized control has also been identified: the topology, i.e. the underlying structure of the material flow network. However, the topology has so far not been considered when developing decentralized control approaches. The project aimed at quantifying the influence of the topology of a material flow network on the logistic performance. Contact persons: S.
