Abstract

Present shop control methods often fail in observing even-driven job allocation due to the existence of many disparities caused by scrape, resource failures, etc. In order to solve these problems, new strategies of intelligent manufacturing systems are proposed. An agent strategy, that is autonomous and cooperative, is described. This paper presents the control method of agent-based shop control system that takes proper account of the change of external environment
