Towards Control and Supervision Systems based on Intelligent Agents
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article presents a design approach for control and supervision systems of industrial processes based on intelligent agents. First, the general platform supporting the whole multi-agent system for control and supervision is defined. From there, applications are conceived like specialized multi-agent systems to coordinate, execute and evaluate control and supervision tasks needed for the distributed information processing and decisionmaking. The production units in industrial environments are also modeled as multi-agent systems implementing the logical and functional abstraction of the real processes. In this way, cooperation and negotiation for improving the production performance are achieved through the adequate interaction between the agents community. Key-Words: Automation, Supervision and Control, Multi-agents Systems (MAS), Distributed Intelligent Control.

User-based Vehicle Route Guidance in Urban Networks Based on Intelligent Multi Agents Systems and the ANT-Q Algorithm
Guiding vehicles to their destination under dynamic traffic conditions is an important topic in the field of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). Nowadays, many complex systems can be controlled by using multi agent systems. Adaptation with the current condition is an important feature of the agents. In this research, formulation of dynamic guidance for vehicles has been investigated based...
متن کاملVoltage Coordination of FACTS Devices in Power Systems Using RL-Based Multi-Agent Systems
This paper describes how multi-agent system technology can be used as the underpinning platform for voltage control in power systems. In this study, some FACTS (flexible AC transmission systems) devices are properly designed to coordinate their decisions and actions in order to provide a coordinated secondary voltage control mechanism based on multi-agent theory. Each device here is modeled as ...

During years of research in control field, some supervision, detection and diagnosis techniques have been developed. Now, advances on distributed and ubiquitous computing, networking and sensors provide new environments to integrate control techniques. However, this integration is not straigforward, reason of why new methods and approaches are required. In this sense, holons and agents seems a ...
متن کاملA Context-aware Architecture for Mental Model Sharing through Semantic Movement in Intelligent Agents
Recent studies in multi-agent systems are paying increasingly more attention to the paradigm of designing intelligent agents with human inspired concepts. One of the main cognitive concepts driving the core of many recent approaches in multi agent systems is shared mental models. In this paper, we propose an architecture for sharing mental models based on a new concept called semantic movement....
متن کاملAn Advanced and Distributed Control Architecture Based on Intelligent Agents and Neural Networks
In this paper a new layered architecture for the implementation of intelligent distributed control systems is proposed. The proposed architecture distinguishes four layers in a distributed control system. Upper layer consists of a digital control layer, where high level decisions are taken. This level is implemented by means of intelligent agents that carry out the discrete control functions, s...
