Abstract
Key element of this work is a structural model, which describes the phases of the design by means of self-optimizing-process. It describes which aspects are needed and how they are coherently implemented in order to design a self-optimizing production contol system. The system is described with the help of a laboratory project in which a contract manufacturer produces different types of flashlights and faces disturbances in his production system. This has been realised in a simulation model. With the help of this prototypical implementation the feasibility was validated.
