# Control system with multiple simulators

## Abstract

A control system includes: a plurality of local controllers configured to respectively control a plurality of machines including a robot; a local simulator configured to simulate, based on a local model including a model of the robot and a model of a surrounding environment of the robot, an operation that a local controller corresponding to the robot causes the robot to perform; and a system simulator configured to simulate, based on a system model including models of the plurality of machines and a model of a surrounding environment of the plurality of machines, an operation that the plurality of local controllers cause the machines to perform.
