Abstract :
This paper proposes a system, which manages both efficiency and flexibility in the manufacturing system. It has been considered that an autonomous distributed system is superior to a centralized system in terms of fail-proof expansion, load dispersion, flexibility, and the possibility of the evolution. However, it is difficult to manage both efficiency and flexibility according to conventional method in an autonomous distributed system. To solve the problem, we propose a method. The method is that the carrier organizes the whole number of the carrier in the system, according to the volume of the task and the complexity of it. And we evaluate the proposed method of self-organizing behavior by a multi-AGV autonomous system in the quantitative dynamic environment. It shown that the system has higher efficiency in this system than in the centralized system with self-organization in the quantitative dynamic environment
