Autonomous Agents for Distributed Problem Solving in Condition Monitoring

Development in the application of ICT in condition monitoring and maintenance

“…The COMMAS architecture contains three layers (Mangina et al [35]). Mangina et al [35] describe an architecture for condition monitoring based on intelligent agent technology.…”

“…The COMMAS architecture contains three layers (Mangina et al [35]). Mangina et al [35] describe an architecture for condition monitoring based on intelligent agent technology. It is a three-layer architecture divided into the Attribute Reasoning Agent (ARA) -Situated Agents, Cross-Sensor Corroboration Agents (CSCA) -BDI Agents and Meta Knowledge Reasoning Agents (MKRA) (Fig.…”

“…One of the first agent-based architectures suggested is the COndition-Monitoring Multi-Agent System (COMMAS) (Mangina et al [35][36][37][38][39]). The COMMAS architecture contains three layers (Mangina et al [35]).…”

“…Table 3 illustrates the various findings for the first versions of the COMMAS architecture. From references [35][36][37][38][39] it can be seen that the baseline technology is founded on a multi-agent system and aimed at the power industry with different applications.…”

Developments in integration of advanced monitoring systems
