Structural order measure of manufacturing systems based on an information-theoretic approach

作者：

Highlights：

• A structure entropy model with dynamic characteristics and generality is proposed.

• A structural order parameter of manufacturing systems is established.

• The algorithms of the timeliness entropy and the quality entropy are demonstrated.

• An empirical study demonstrated well the rationality of proposed approaches.
