Multi Agent

A framework for building EDM collaborative manufacturing system using multi-agent technology to support organizations characterized by physically distributed, enterprise-wide, heterogeneous intelligent manufacturing system over Internet is proposed. According to the characteristics of agile EDM collaborative manufacturing system(AEDMCMS), the agent technology is combined with Petri net in order to analyze the model. Based on the basic Petri Net, the definition is extended and the Agent-oriented Petri net (APN) is proposed. AEDMCM is turned into the model of Petri Net which is suitable to the analysis and optimization of manufacturing processes.

Hierarchy Process

In the whole life cycle of production process, the stability of production manufacturing system is an important production factor. However, there were a few researches about the system stability in the past years. In this paper, for the stability of production manufacturing system, a new method is proposed based on Petri-net and analytic hierarchy process. In the proposed method, the reachability of manufacturing system is judged by using Petri-net, and the system stability is calculated by the successful probability of the key production nodes. Finally, evaluation steps of the new method are given, and the new evaluation method is applied in case study.
