This paper proposes a middleware architecture that will serve as a framework for the management of industrial processes in an industrial grid environment. The proposed system is based on agents making possible the effective distribution of intelligence, thus fortifying the survivability of the industrial network, while a central point of monitoring and control allows agent monitoring. By the term 'agent' we denote a piece of software which overviews a well-defined part ofan industrial process, abides to rules, accepts inputs, issues reports and easily adapts to environmental changes. Utilizing key technologies like web services, workflow allocation and ontologies, a scalable and highly adaptable architecture is achieved.

“…Also, various interaction protocols have been standardized for agent communication, and these are argued to provide a means to manage asynchronous information flow. For the purposes of process automation monitoring, the subscribe interaction protocol is particularly interesting [18].…”

This paper studies issues concerning the application of goal-oriented information agents to condition monitoring tasks in process automation. In the presented approach, an agent-based information access layer is operating as a mediator for various types of process-related information. The agent system may be seen as an active partner for human users in this information intensive application domain. In the future, more and more automation related information will be available in electronic form. Physical sensors provide not only measurements but also reliability information, and numerous configuration details are available in electronic form. The challenge is to integrate as much of the available information as possible, and to automate the processing of this information to enable easy decision-making for end users.
