Abstract. The demand for large-scale systems running in complex and even chaotic environments requires the consideration of new paradigms and technologies that provide flexibility, robustness, agility and responsiveness. Multiagents systems is pointed out as a suitable approach to address this challenge by offering an alternative way to design control systems, based on the decentralization of control functions over distributed autonomous and cooperative entities. However, in spite of their enormous potential, they usually lack some aspects related to interoperability, optimization in decentralized structures and truly self-adaptation. This paper discusses a new perspective to engineer adaptive complex systems considering a 3-layer framework integrating several complementary paradigms and technologies. In a first step, it suggests the integration of multi-agent systems with service-oriented architectures to overcome the limitations of interoperability and smooth migration, followed by the use of technology enablers, such as cloud computing and wireless sensor networks, to provide a ubiquitous and reconfigurable environment. Finally, the resulted service-oriented multi-agent system should be enhanced with biologically inspired techniques, namely self-organization, to reach a truly robust, agile and adaptive system.

“…Commonly, terms as service orchestration and choreography are used for this purpose. Orchestration is the practice of sequencing and synchronizing the execution of services, which encapsulate business or manufacturing processes [12][13]. An orchestration engine implements the logic for workflow-oriented execution and sequencing of atomic services, and provides a high-level interface for the composed process.…”

Abstract:In the recent evolution of production control systems, the emergence of decentralized systems capable of dealing with the rapid changes in the production environment better than the traditional centralized architectures has been one of the most significant developments. The agent-based and holonic paradigms symbolize this approach, and ADACOR holonic control architecture is a successful example of such a system. In this paper, authors discusses the current challenges and the way to go in the direction of new, reconfigurable, evolvable and ubiquitous systems, able to respond to current production environment demands and variability.

“…In [10] it is proposed to benefit from these same techniques in order to raise the level of abstraction of the production elements to the business level in such a way that the integration of resources, processes and in general business logic is produced in a natural and transparent manner within the existing business models. Finally, also within the framework of European research projects there are some important initiatives which support the interest along these lines, with significant results which have advanced towards Service-oriented architecture (SOA) and embedded devices in industrial machinery as valid technologies [11] [12] [13].…”

Abstract-This paper proposes a system for management of industrial production elements inspired by the techniques employed in the management of the current and complex ICT infrastructures on which business models are based and which are having considerable success. The main result of applying these techniques is that, at the same time as providing an adequate focus for the management of this type of infrastructure, it is possible to evolve from mass production models towards mass customization models increasingly bringing organisation objectives closer to the interests and requirements of customers. In this work, we present a review of the technologies in the sectors involved; a reconfiguration system is proposed for production systems based on management of ICT and integrated with the business system; their implementation and operation is analysed; and finally the main conclusions are drawn from the work, together with an indication of future lines of research.
