Agent-Based Modeling for Holonic Manufacturing Systems with Fuzzy Control
نویسندگان
چکیده
Agent-based systems technologies are of emerging interest in the specification and implementation of complex systems. This article introduces the CASA agent development system which seamlessly combines the BDI (Belief Desire Intention) approach with the FIPA agent communication language standard and an integrated specification of fuzzy controllers. The behavior of agents is defined by strategies which basically correspond to extended guarded horn clauses with priorities. The presented concepts are introduced by an example from Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM). The example gives the specification of a fuzzy controller for a manufacturing station in the context of a holonic manufacturing system (HMS).

متن کاملModeling Lateral Communication in Holonic Multi Agent Systems
Agents, in a multi agent system, communicate with each other through the process of exchanging messages which is called dialogue. Multi agent organization is generally used to optimize agents’ communications. Holonic organization demonstrates a self-similar recursive and hierarchical structure in which each holon may include some other holons. In a holonic system, lateral communication occurs b...

متن کاملA Fuzzy Mathematics Approach to Modeling Emergent Holonic Structures
This paper proposes fuzzy entropy minimization as an emergent property of holonic structures. When applied in the context of multi-agent systems this emergent property leads to automatic clustering of the agents into holonic organizations. When modeling enterprises as software agents the property turns into an inherent characteristic of holonic virtual organizations that enables clustering the ...
