“…The second structural element concerns the internal configuration of the global and local decisional entities. For the global decisional entity, the configuration of the optimization module avoids aggregation of control decisions into one optimization mechanism, which is one of the most common features found in semi-heterarchical approaches reported in Chapter II (Heragu et al, 2002;Walker et al, 2005;Nejad et al, 2011). In those cases, 's interventions strongly depend on highly complex optimization mechanisms.…”

“…However, there are no specific methods for implementing holonic systems in either the manufacturing world or any other field of holon application. Multi-agent technology is the most used tool [25]- [27]. Some researchers suggest [28] that this is because agents and holons are not unalike, and there are even some holonic multiagent systems [29].…”

Abstract-The concepts of holon and holarchy were first applied in the manufacturing world to develop Holonic Manufacturing Systems. Since then, they have been used in many fields and have proved to be applicable concepts for developing applications in any business area. Resulting applications are based on conceptual holonic constructions. Like any model, a holarchy needs to be validated under real circumstances. Such validation assures the quality of the holarchy before it is implemented. In general, validation research tends to target: 1) the specific types of holons handled in each proposal and/or the selected development paradigms; and 2) algorithm performance rather than architecture quality. This paper proposes and evaluates a methodology that focuses on the quality of the architecture. This methodology is able to validate any holonic architecture built to meet trade requirements. Moreover, this is a general-purpose methodology. Therefore, the methodology would be valid for any domain and would not be invalidated by holon types and/or implementation paradigms emerging, changing or falling into disuse. For this purpose, we consider holonic architectures as conceptual models, using the pure holon and holarchy concepts and passing up not only any specific implementation paradigm but also any set of specific holon types.
