Towards a Framework for Agent-based Product Modelling
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents an approach to product modelling that uses computational agents to represent product data. These agents are situated, i.e. they produce all data representations in response to the specific need in the current situation. We have explored this characteristic in the context of the communication of product data to develop a framework for agent-based product modelling. This framework complements current standardisation efforts through its ability to construct product models on the fly to flexibly adapt to changes in the environment.

Towards a Community Framework for Agent-Based Modelling
Agent-based modelling has become an increasingly important tool for scholars studying social and social-ecological systems, but there are no community standards on describing, implementing, testing and teaching these tools. This paper reports on the establishment of the Open Agent-Based Modelling Consortium, www.openabm.org, a community effort to foster the agent-based modelling development, co...
متن کاملFeature Composition – Towards product lines of Event-B models
Event-B is a formal language for modelling reactive systems, based on set theory and first-order logic. The RODIN toolkit provides comprehensive tool support for modelling and refinement in Event-B, analysis and verification using animator/model-checkers and theorem provers. We consider the need to support reuse, in particular product line reuse, in such a formal development method. Feature mod...
متن کاملA Framework towards the Verification of Emergent Properties in Spatial Multi-Agent Systems
Formal modelling of multi-agent systems (MAS) present many interesting challenges. In this extended abstract we present a framework of how formal modelling can lead towards identi cation and veri cation of emergent properties of spatial biology-inspired MAS. We discuss the problem in question as well as initial work done on the formal modelling side and the visual animation of these formal models.
متن کاملEmpirical characterisation of agent behaviours in socio-ecological systems
Agent-based modelling has become an important tool to investigate socio-ecological processes. Its use is partially driven by increasing demand from decision makers to provide support for understanding the potential implications of decisions in complex situations. While one of the advantages of agent-based modelling is the ability to simulate the implications of human decision-making processes e...
