“…The ultimate goal of agent-based FMS researches is to establish an FMS control system which is error prone, flexible to dynamically changing environment and ease to maintain. Holonic Manufacturing system (HMS) is one of the earliest structures attaining these requirements in FMS application (Jarvis et al, 2003).

A flexible manufacturing system (FMS) is a complex manufacturing system, which demands a robust control software for its scheduling, planning and control functions. This study considers the applications of multi-agent systems (MAS) in FMS control systems. Its aim was to establish a new hybrid-based approach in the design and analysis of agent-based FMS control systems. The proposed hybrid approach is based on the UML (Unified Modelling Language) and CPN (Coloured Petri Net) modeling technologies. The UML modeling methodology was adopted in the design and specification of the MAS-based FMS control systems and the individual agent. A mapping mechanism was developed to convert the UML views into CPN models. The CPN models can then be used to represent the dynamic behavior and interactions of agents in the MAS. In the corresponding CPN model, resource allocation by agents is represented by the color tokens. Three different flexible assembly cell (FAC) configurations were used as examples of manufacturing systems. According to a simple FAC configuration, a generic Chapter 1. INTRODUCTION

“…In DEDEMAS built up at IFW in University of Hannover, Tonshoff et al tend to provide a mechanism for decentralized decisionmaking and scheduling in holonic manufacturing system [5]. Several aspects of the HMS, such as dynamic scheduling, dispatching, process planning, were studied, however one of the key issues, the migration strategy has not been well understood [6]. Seamless integration the existing manufacturing systems such as NCs, CNCs, AGVs, IRs etc still remain a challenging topic although migration from conventional system to H M S is regarded as a potentially cost-effective approach to holonic manufacturing paradigm.…”

Up to date, Holonic Manufacturing System(HMS), one of novel concepts to meet the increasingly globalization and customization of the manufacturing processes, has been conceptually constructed, and prototyping systems, Holonic Fixturing Station(HOLOFIX), Holonic Autonomous Guided Vehicles(H-AGVs) etc. were developed with enhanced performances in their specific processes. This paper presented an Objected Oriented Technology (0OT)supported migration approach to holonic robot assembly cell. Based on the analysis of activities in the flexible assembly cell, an architecture of workstation for hlonic robot assembly cell was proposed. The holonic robot workstation was established by incolporating a control computer that performs production planning, shop floor control and local operations into each of robot systems in the flexible assembly cell, workstations of this kindfunctions as the building blocks of holonic robot assembly cell. The holonic robot assembly cell employs a dynamic holarchy evolution mechanism to carry out assembly tasks. The entire implementation was conducted on the Flexible Assembly System in P M m u v e n .0-7803-7941-1/03/$17.0002003 IEEE.
