Abstract

The application of ADACOR, a collaborative production automation and control architecture, is discussed. ADACOR provides a catalog of elements that simplifies the development of agent-based control systems for flexible manufacturing, from design to operation. ADACOR's Petri net-based approach facilitates the conception, definition, and formal specification of an encapsulation process in industrial production systems. ADACOR is a typical holonic/collaborative manufacturing control architecture, which addresses many of the issues defined by the ARC's Collaborative Manufacturing management (CMM) model.
