Abstract

Nowadays, processes of logistics are generally controlled by applying a centralized control approach. However, regarding an increasingly complex and dynamic environment the centralized control approach often turns out to be inflexible and not manageable satisfyingly. To cope with this situation, autonomous control was developed. Though, both control approaches feature advantages and disadvantages regarding their performance and transparency. Here, a hybrid control approach can combine the advantages of both approaches. The paper at hand presents a concept of a hybrid control approach using the example of automotive logistics.
