Abstract When we design the control system used Programmable Logic Controller(PLC) by Sequential Function Chart(SFC), if we use a SFC, it is easy to know the sequential flow of control, to maintenance the controller and to describe a program. We program a SFC by a unique sequence , an alternative sequence and a parallel sequence. If we program a SFC by a alternative sequence, the memory size of a alternative sequence must be larger than the memory size of a unique sequence. Therefore this thesis show an efficient method to reduce a memory size and we confirmed its feasibility through actual example.
