Abstract

The paper presents hierarchical and multi-agent control and information system with real-time update of self organising database as well as with negotiation capability for control events and decisions. A practical application is presented, that utilizes the OPC technology in the continuous-time part, and scripts using XML in the discrete-time part of the system for negotiation and cooperation in multi-agent environment. This feature is applied for the improvement of a non-conventional biotechnological process control in the pilot plant.
