More Information
Summary:New revolutionary manufacturing paradigms, which take advantage of the latest emerging mechatronics, information and communication technologies and integrate them in a highly dynamic and agile economic, technical and organisational manufacturing environment, are being researched and developed in the last decade. This new generation of manufacturing systems is referred to as intelligent manufacturing systems, and both the "holonic manufacturing system" and the "agent-oriented manufacturing system" paradigms have been presented in recent years as the basis for making such systems a reality. In this paper, the main specifications of the implementation of an intelligent manufacturing system at industrial level with agent-based control software technology are presented as a practical solution to the holonic control paradigm.
