Rationales for Holonic Manufacturing Control
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper is concerned with providing a clear business basis for the emerging research field of holonic manufacturing systems. The holonic approach is to develop highly flexible manufacturing operations from a set of readily reconfigurable building blocks, which are designed to integrate easily and collaborate dynamically with one another as production demand changes. The business basis is assessed through a requirements deployment process which establishes a link between business trends and requirements on the manufacturing operations and control systems in particular. These control systems requirements are compared to the anticipated control system properties of holonic manufacturing systems.

متن کاملIntegration of Automation Resources in Holonic Manufacturing Applications
Holonic and agent-based paradigms are very suitable in the development of distributed manufacturing control systems, taking advantage of their modularity, decentralization, and ability to support dynamic and complex system design features. However, the integration of manufacturing resources within the holonic manufacturing control applications remains a problem, because no efficient standard al...
