چکیده
This paper describes research based on the HMS or Holonic Manufacturing Systems concept, which was elaborated in the IMS Test Case N° 5. First, the paper discusses the HMS paradigm. Second, it presents a number of fundamental properties of complex adaptive systems. Third, examples demonstrate how the insights of the previous section have an impact on the design and architecture of distributed manufacturing systems and their components.

This reports gives an extensive review of the holonic manufacturing systems literature in 2004. After a brief introduction of holonic principles and concepts, a full rationale of holonic systems in manufacturing is given. In particular, an argument is developed that holonic manufacturing systems provide greater agility than their current industrially adopted counterparts. The body of the review...
متن کاملModeling a holonic agent based solution by Petri nets
One of the key design issues for distributed systems is to find proper planning and coordination mechanisms when knowledge and decision capabilities are spread along the system. This contribution refers holonic manufacturing execution systems and highlights the way a proper modeling method – Petri nets – makes evident certain problems that can appear when agents have to simultaneously treat mor...
متن کاملAnalysis and Design of Holonic Manufacturing Systems
Research on Holonic Manufacturing Systems (HMS) is undergoing a huge amount of interest and developments. In spite of the great amount of effort devoted to architectures and algorithms for holonic control of manufacturing systems there are little work about design methodologies. In this work we present a multi agent methodology for analysis and design of HMS, it is based on an abstract agent de...
