Introduce Topic Importance
Models, Design, & Application • Relate to technical area in course? • Yes
Models, Design, & ApplicationAgent parameters defined (1/2) • Physical Agents = represent jobs, the manufacturing resources, and the machining processes in the FMS • Job Agents • Job information • Machining features • Process plan networks • Job status • Machine Tool Agents • Machine tool information • Machine tool status • Cutting tool • Fixture • Machining Process Agents
Models, Design, & ApplicationAgent parameters defined (2/2) • Information Agents = Virtual agents for governing the negotiation protocol and decision-making. • Production Engineering Agents • Job Order Agents
Models, Design, & Application • Design principle • the whole thing is telling how to design FMS’s, not do an experiment.
Conclusions • Practical industrial use? • Yes! • Technical advancement? • At least a good compilation. • Industries most impacted? • Manufacturing with automation.
