Описание: In today s world, the increasing requirement for emulating the behavior of real-world applications for achieving effective management and control has necessitated the usage of advanced computational techniques. Computational intelligence-based techniques that combine a variety of problem solvers are becoming increasingly pervasive. The ability of these methods to adapt to the dynamically changing environment and learn in an online manner has increased their usefulness in simulating intelligent behaviors as observed in humans. These intelligent systems are able to handle the stochastic and uncertain nature of the real-world problems. Application domains requiring interaction of people or organizations with different, even possibly conflicting goals and proprietary information handling are growing exponentially. To efficiently handle these types of complex interactions, distributed problem solving systems like multiagent systems have become a necessity. The rapid advancements in network communication technologies have provided the platform for successful implementation of such intelligent agent-based problem solvers. An agent can be viewed as a self-contained, concurrently executing thread of control that encapsulates some state and communicates with its environment, and possibly other agents via message passing. Agent-based systems offer advantages when independently developed components must interoperate in a heterogenous environment. Such agent-based systems are increasingly being applied in a wide range of areas including telecommunications, Business process modeling, computer games, distributed system control and robot systems."

Описание: The research of holonic and agent-based systems is developing very rapidly. We see an increased interest of the IEEE System, Man and Cybernetics Society, especially its Technical Committee on Distributed Intelligent Systems which leverages the experience gathered by the members of the former Ho- nic Manufacuting Systems (HMS) consortium.

Описание: The term "holon" was ?rst introduced by Koestler (Koestler, 1967) to c- ture the idea that both biological and social structures consisted of entities that were part of a larger whole, while being self-contained entities in their own right. These entities were called holons and the structures that they form werecalled holarchies. Inthisbook, wepresentaconceptualmodelforholonic manufacturing execution and then use this model to develop two implem- tations for an execution system for an industrial strength robotic assembly cell. The model is based on the experience that we have gained in developing a number of agent-based execution systems over the past 10 years. Manufacturingexecutionisthatactivitywhichisconcernedwiththem- agement of actual manufacturing tasks. It involves interaction with device controllers, but it is conceptually separate from manufacturing control. The applicability of the holonic concept to manufacturing was ?rst noted by Suda (Suda, 1990) and this led to the formation of the Holonic Manufacturing Systems project in 1993 (HMS Consortium, 2001). The HMS project was conducted under the auspices of the Intelligent Manufacturing Systems (IMS) program (IMS, 2005) and remains of the largest of the IMS projects to have been undertaken. The HMS project spanned three separate phases, ending in 2004. In addition, a signi?cant amount of work (including the work described in this book) was conducted outside the HMS project. Conceptually, holons are similar to agents.

Описание: This book articulates a new theory that shows that hierarchical decision making can in fact lead to a near optimization of system goals. The material in the book cuts across disciplines. It will appeal to graduate students and researchers in applied mathematics, operations management, operations research, and system and control theory.
