Electro Plating Lines Project

This project contains two programs: multiproductrewrite and multi_robot. Both programs are designed to help model and manage tasks in a multi-product, multi-robot electroplating environment.

Prerequisites

This project relies on the Hadamard_product_counters library which should be located in the directory neighboring the current one.

If you do not already have this library, you can clone it from the Git repository:

git clone [email protected]:kreijstal/Hadamard_product_counters.git

Please ensure that the Hadamard_product_counters directory is located next to the electro_plating_lines directory.

Cloning This Repository

To clone this repository, use the following command:

git clone [email protected]:kreijstal/electro_plating_lines.git

Quick Setup

The project includes an init.sh script for bash that checks/clones the Hadamard_product_counters dependency and builds the programs.

To use it, navigate to the project directory and run:

./init.sh

If the Hadamard_product_counters directory exists and is a Git repository, the script will proceed to build the programs. If the directory exists but is not a Git repository, the script will exit with an error message.

If the Hadamard_product_counters directory does not exist, the script will attempt to clone the repository from GitHub and then build the programs.

How to Compile

If you prefer to compile manually, use the make command in the project directory.

To compile all programs, run:

make all

How to Run the Programs

After successfully compiling the project, you can run either of the programs using the following commands:

For multiproductrewrite:

./multiproductrewrite

For multi_robot:

./multi_robot

Both programs are interactive and will prompt for user input once started. Please follow the on-screen instructions to provide the necessary input.

Description of Programs

1. multiproductrewrite: This program models and manages tasks for electroplating lines with multiple products.

2. multi_robot: This program extends the capabilities of multiproductrewrite by adding the management of multiple robots.
