Abstract
A system for controlling an operation of a machine is provided. The system includes a controller to communicate with a positioning module disposed on the machine and a sensor module associated with the implement. The controller determines a start location and an end location of the operation, and determines an operating path therebetween. Further, the controller engages the implement with a work surface and moves the machine from the start location. The controller further determines an interrupted location of the machine based on the positioning module and a load acting on the implement. The controller further resumes the operation of the machine from the interrupted location if a first distance between the interrupted location and the start location is greater than a first threshold distance and a second distance between the interrupted location and the end location is greater than a second threshold distance.
