Abstract :
The holonic visual interface is an intelligent agent-based interface for the human visualisation of holonic systems and for their control. Such visual interfaces must also be appropriate for inter-human co-ordination. This is a human-system distributed interface which facilitates integrated collaboration between humans and systems. These interfaces need to be utilizable at many levels of a manufacturing or other distributed agent-based system, operating concurrently
