Abstract

In order to implement the rapid reconfiguration of reconfigurable assembly system, after analyzing the traditional architectures of control systems, a hybrid architecture based on multi-agent systems is proposed, which combines the advantages of hierarchical and distributed architecture. The proposed architecture has many prominent characters such as lower complexity, robustness, maintainability, scalability, reusing ability and so on. Conforming to FIPA standards, all kinds of agents in the architecture are realized on the software development platform JADE
