Abstract Nondeterminism in discrete-event systems occurs in many practical situations and often as a result of partial observability of events. For the adequate description of nondeterministic systems and nondeterministic phenomena, the trajectory-model formalism was introduced by Heymann (1991) and Heymann et al. (1991). This formalism has been used in by Shayman et al. (1995) for obtaining various results on supervisory control of nondeterministic systems subject to language specifications. In the present paper we develop a theory of supervisory control for nondeterministic discrete-event systems subject to both language and trajectory-model specifications. We further show how well-known algorithms for supervisory control (of deterministic systems) under partial observation can be adapted for synthesis of supervisors for nondeterministic systems subject to both language and trajectory-model specifications.
