This contribution discusses some important issues of the Holonic Manufacturing Systems. The respective approach can bring about some features requested by the present conditions in manufacturing. An appropriate planning mechanism is designed, together with the execution cycle of the agents used as the holons' deliberative part. The proposed planning and coordination mechanism is implemented in an agent specific environment. The implementation details clarifies the way the proposed solution is to be carried out, conducting to a collaborative robotic system as the main part of an experimental manufacturing system.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
