Abstract

The paper presents design and implementing considerations for an agent-based environment monitoring and control system dedicated to a radiopharmaceuticals production line. This system is distributed on two layers: a centralized one, responsible for updating the status of the facility’s parameters and the global control strategy for cascade room parameters, and a distributed one that applies the global strategy to local environment control units—Heat Ventilation and Air Conditioning units (HVAC). The paper describes the environment parameters and defines the HVAC process models. The facility environment control system is developed in holonic approach, with three basic holons and one expertize holon. An implementing solution and integration of the environment control system with the radiopharmaceutical production management system is described. Experimental results and conclusions are finally presented.
