....computation of the holonic multiagent system. 4 Holonic Multiagent Systems vs. Holonic Manufacturing Systems Although similar in name, there are several important di#erences between holonic multiagent systems as proposed here and holonic manufacturing systems as presented in the literature (e.g. [4, 14]) Modelling the recursion of agent grouping is an integral part of holonic multiagent systems. Mirroring the complex composition of a task, holonic agents can engage in a complex nested structures and nested structures of arbitrary depth are possible and meaningful (depending on the ....

....is dependent on the agent itself, the function of an agent and the application system in which the agent are function on. For our interest we may group agents into functional classes. Of course an agent may belong to more than one class in different level of hierarchy. According to Deen s paper[5] , agents can be grouped in an infinite variety of functional classes. However, for the purpose of manufacturing systems, seven classes are interesting. The classes are: 1. Information Disseminator Agent : Agents from this class are data knowledge bases which disseminate information in a trivial ....
....programme. Major industries, universities and research institutes from six regions participate in this programme. These regions are : Australia, Canada, EC countries, EFTA countries, Japan and USA. This is a ten year pre competitive research programme which is partially funded by the governments[5]. 6.1 Intelligent System and IMS There are many definitions of a system. We may define a system as a collection of things, might be objects, resources and so forth, that form a unitary whole. Most of the man made systems have a purpose. A dynamic system has five components : Input which is ....
