Manufacturing Material Flow Analysis Based on Agent and Movable Resource Concept

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Advances in Intelligent and Soft Computing ((AINSC,volume 90))

Abstract

The paper presents the results of the author’s studies which consisted in planning process taking place in an enterprise characterized by manufacturing of complex products (machine building). The idea of the so-called domains of the CIMOSA concept which has been used for the modeling was presented. Planning process based on the multi-agent architecture called VLPRO-GRAPH was extended by the concept of special agent which checks the material flow in the production system. The formal model of this flow was introduced. Finally results of the numerical experiment of analysis and checking process graph are presented.
