“…In their experiment, a baggage handling system has been experimented using IEC 61499, which is one of the popular HMS representation tools. Metzger and Polakow (2007) have tested distributed control of holonic multi-agent-based system in an industrial pilot plant. Even though this method shows dynamics of implemented HMS and can measure the effectiveness directly, there are several limitations such as its limited ability to handle abnormal situations in the HMS or identify bottlenecks in the HMS.…”

This paper provides an executable design framework for modelling and controlling holonic manufacturing processes and systems. This framework is based on reconfigurable manufacturing holonic modules. These holonic modules consist of holons represented using parameterised Petri Net modules. As the suggested modelling framework shares advantages of IEC 61499 and FCPN-std, it supports the design of complex holonic manufacturing processes/system and allows simulation and analysis under general manufacturing uncertainties. Self-organisation activity in a holonic manufacturing system is explained using an evolution concept. A holon's inner evolution is executed through cascading parameterised Petri Net modules. This evolution is used for capturing the dynamic characteristics of a manufacturing environment. Routeing and reconfiguration is fulfilled through configuration evolution. It is achieved using the suggested constraint-based fuzzy Q-learning algorithm. The provided framework and two evolution algorithms are considered an executable design framework for modelling and controlling holonic manufacturing system.

In this paper a study on appropriate plant diagram synthesis for user-suited HMI in operating control is presented. Discussion is based on the long-term personal experience and illustrated with excerpts of existing HMIs developed for research and industrial use. The HMI notion is defined for operating control and for operator training. The paper present three aspects of plant diagrams design. The first aspect deals with task-oriented usage of screen space for plant diagram and other GUI elements. Second aspect covers all methods of image creation for process diagrams, including photography, schematic diagrams, use of predefined normalised 3D graphical elements, and creative possibilities of 3D scene. The third aspect stresses capability of dynamic visualisation with the use of animated graphics.
