چکیده

The use of holonic control in reconfigurable manufacturing systems holds great advantages, such as reduction in complexity and cost, along with increased maintainability and reliability. This paper presents an implementation of holonic control using Erlang, a functional programming language. The paper shows how the functional components of a PROSA resource holon can be implemented through Erlang processes. The subjection of a case study implementation to a reconfigurability experiment is also discussed.

Erlang-based control implementation for a holonic manufacturing cell

Holonic control is generally used in reconfigurable manufacturing systems since the modularity of holonic control holds the promise of easier reconfiguration, reduction in complexity and cost, along with increased maintainability and reliability. As an alternative to the commonly used agent-based approach, this paper presents an Erlang-based holon internal architecture and implementation method...

Negotiation-based Manufacturing Control in Holonic Manufacturing Systems

The dream of holonic manufacturing is that fully operational Computer Integrated Manufacturing systems can be installed by merely plugging together manufacturing resources that are each controlled by an individual agent. The functionality of an holonic architecture would supersede and integrate the functionality currently in the islands of automation in Manufacturing Resource Planning (MRP II) ...

Design of reconfiguration mechanism for holonic manufacturing systems based on formal models

One of the key design issues of holonic manufacturing systems (HMS) is to effectively respond to resource failures based on the flexible holonic architecture. The objective of this paper is to propose a viable design methodology to implement reconfiguration mechanism in HMS. A reconfiguration mechanism is developed to accommodate changes based on collaboration of holons without leading to chaos...

Implementation and Validation of a Holonic Manufacturing Control System

Flexible manufacturing systems are complex, stochastic environments requiring the development of innovative, intelligent control architectures that support agility and re-configurability. ADACOR holonic control system addresses this challenge by introducing an adaptive production control approach supported by the presence of supervisor entities and the self-organization capabilities associated ...

A Holonic Manufacturing System implementation

Manufacturing systems must adapt to new challenges impacting the economy. New structures, behaviours and requirements arise in response to those challenges. These elements are systematised and different problem approaches are analysed. Multiagent concepts generally and holonic concept specially are studied. Based on its requirements and characteristics several frameworks are compared. Besides, ...
