Multi-Agent Autonomic Architectures for Quality Control Systems
نویسنده
چکیده
Quality control is crucial to the success of any business and organization. Due to the ever-increasing complexity and mission-critical nature of quality control, development, deployment, and management of information systems for quality control overwhelms the capabilities of software developers and system administrators. This has motivated our research, co-sponsored by IBM and HP, to explore development of multi-agent autonomic architecture for quality control systems. We have designed a new multi-agent autonomic architecture for quality control systems. This paper presents the new multi-agent autonomic architecture, and discusses our latest research results and our plans for enhancement of this research project. Background information is also provided in this paper.

On the Architectures of Complex Multi-Agent Systems
This paper presents a literature review on the architectures of complex multi-agent systems. Firstly, the concept of general architectures and three orientations of systems architectures, i.e., information flow oriented, control oriented and role oriented ones, are presented. Secondly, a literature review is presented upon the architectures of complex multi-agent systems in terms of control ori...
متن کاملDecentralized Software Architectures of Multi-Agent Systems
In our research group, we investigate the engineering of complex distributed applications that are characterized by a high degree of dynamism and change in either the system or its environment. In particular, we study multi-agent systems to design such applications. A multi-agent system is in essence a system that is structured as a set of autonomous, reflective software components (agents) tha...
متن کاملEvaluating Multi-agent System Architectures: A Case Study Concerning Dynamic Resource Allocation
Much effort has been spent on suggesting and implementing new architectures of Multi-Agent Systems. However, we believe the time has come to compare and evaluate these architectures in a more systematic way. Rather than just studying a particular application, we suggest that more general problem domains corresponding to sets of applications should be studied. Similarly, we argue that it is more...
متن کاملAdaptive Distributed Consensus Control for a Class of Heterogeneous and Uncertain Nonlinear Multi-Agent Systems
This paper has been devoted to the design of a distributed consensus control for a class of uncertain nonlinear multi-agent systems in the strict-feedback form. The communication between the agents has been described by a directed graph. Radial-basis function neural networks have been used for the approximation of the uncertain and heterogeneous dynamics of the followers as well as the effect o...
متن کاملAdaptive Neural Network Method for Consensus Tracking of High-Order Mimo Nonlinear Multi-Agent Systems
This paper is concerned with the consensus tracking problem of high order MIMO nonlinear multi-agent systems. The agents must follow a leader node in presence of unknown dynamics and uncertain external disturbances. The communication network topology of agents is assumed to be a fixed undirected graph. A distributed adaptive control method is proposed to solve the consensus problem utilizing re...
