How to Build a Multi-Multi-Agent System: The Agent.Enterprise Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
The maturity of technical foundations for multi-agent systems and the support by development tools, infrastructure services, and a number of development methodologies leads to an increasing number of existing multi-agent systems. A more and more networked environment drives the demand for coupling these heterogeneous systems to large multi-multi-agent systems. Unfortunately, the design and implementation steps necessary in this context are currently not supported by established development methodologies; conventional approaches mainly focus on isolated multi-agent systems. In this paper, we present an approach for the integration of heterogeneous multi-agent systems. The Agent.Enterprise system is a coupled multimulti-agent system that has been designed and tested in the manufacturing logistics domain.

متن کاملAutomatic Generation of a Multi Agent System for Crisis Management by a Model Driven Approach
Considering the increasing occurrences of unexpected events and the need for pre-crisis planning in order to reduce risks and losses, modeling instant response environments is needed more than ever. Modeling may lead to more careful planning for crisis-response operations, such as team formation, task assignment, and doing the task by teams. A common challenge in this way is that the model shou...

A research was conducted to form an approach to the design and implementation of a multi-agent control system of smart elements for a “Smart house”. The system was built on the example of three intelligent robots. In the architecture of the system under development, the main part is the subject-independent multi-agent kernel, which includes the following basic components: direct access service,...
متن کاملA multi Agent System Based on Modified Shifting Bottleneck and Search Techniques for Job Shop Scheduling Problems
This paper presents a multi agent system for the job shop scheduling problems. The proposed system consists of initial scheduling agent, search agents, and schedule management agent. In initial scheduling agent, a modified Shifting Bottleneck is proposed. That is, an effective heuristic approach and can generate a good solution in a low computational effort. In search agents, a hybrid search ap...
