To a Formal Modeling Approach of Error Recovery in Production Systems Based on Holonic Multi-agent Systems Specification

چکیده
Production systems must be reconfigurable and endowed with methods and tools allowing an automatic recovery of expected and unexpected errors. In this domain, error recovery in production systems is always an open problem. Multiagent systems seem to be adapted for representing this kind of problem in an attempt to arrive at a reconfigurable, adaptive, and “intelligent” manufacturing systems. The objective of this work consists in proposing a specification, modeling and structural analysis approach of error recovery production systems using holonic multi-agent systems and Object Petri Nets (OPN).

Modeling Lateral Communication in Holonic Multi Agent Systems
Agents, in a multi agent system, communicate with each other through the process of exchanging messages which is called dialogue. Multi agent organization is generally used to optimize agents’ communications. Holonic organization demonstrates a self-similar recursive and hierarchical structure in which each holon may include some other holons. In a holonic system, lateral communication occurs b...
متن کاملFormal Specification of Holonic Multi-Agent Systems Framework
Even if software agents and multi-agent systems (MAS) are recognized as both useful abstractions and effective technologies for modeling and building complex distributed applications, they are still difficult to engineer. When massive number of autonomous components interact it is very difficult to predict the behavior of the system and guarantee that the desired functionalities will be fulfill...
متن کاملEngineering Hierarchical Complex Systems: An Agent-Based Approach. The Case of Flexible Manufacturing Systems
This article introduces a formal model to specify, model and validate hierarchical complex systems described at different levels of analysis. It relies on concepts that have been developed in the multi-agentbased simulation (MABS) literature: level, influence and reaction. One application of such model is the specification of hierarchical complex systems, in which decisional capacities are dyna...

متن کاملFormal Specification of Holonic Control System ADACOR Product Holon, using High-Level Petri Nets
Holonic manufacturing and multi-agent paradigms are suitable to support tbe actual challenges of flexible manufac turing systems, due to their decentralisation, modularity and autonomy features. The formal specification assumes a critical role in order to understand and synthesise those complex systems. The Petri Nets formalism is adequate to model and validate the dynamic behaviour, but presen...
