Abstract

In the analysis of agile manufacturing environment and the characteristics of the production scheduling control method. This paper utilizes multi-agents technology to production scheduling system and builds a rapid response and intelligence agile manufacturing system. This paper utilizes multi-agents´ ability to achieve the task decomposition. Then this paper makes use of consultation and multi-attributes decision mechanism of contract net to solve the scheduling problem in task allocation and coordination of agile manufacturing. The experimental result shows that the system is effective and efficient.
