Abstract :
To the actuality of huge and complicated in logistics area, multi-agent technology is introduced into logistics in this paper. On the basis of analysis of multi-agent organizing, a hierarchical model of multi-agent-based logistics system is proposed. In this model, logistics system is divided into three layers: cooperation planning layer, scheduling decision layer and resource management layer. The function of each layer is also analyzed. And on this basis a hybrid architecture model of logistics system is given. The system can be more sensitive to the environment changing and as a result of that it can afford high quality service to logistics system and realize production increment
