Abstract :
Computer aided process planning (CAPP) plays an important role in the computer integrated manufacturing system (CIMS). Considering the existent disadvantage, a new intelligent agent CAPP system is proposed in this paper. The complex problem is divided into a few small sub problems, and each agent has own knowledge and reasoning. The system modeling, agent structure design and coordination mechanism are proposed.
