  • Abstract
    This paper is concerned with the implementation of software agents in manufacturing systems, and more particularly with the problems of short-term scheduling and resource allocation. A first approach is presented with the European project named PABADIS, where production agents negotiate processing tasks with resource agents. In a second part, we propose a protocol of cooperation between agents based on a game theory approach.
