Abstract

The mission of the ExPlanTech technology transfer project is to introduce, customize and exploit the multi-agent production planning technology in two distinct industrial cases. The traditional production planning activity is substituted by agent driven service negotiations, intelligent decomposition and distributed decision-making. This paper describes a FIPA-compliant implementation of the ExPlanTech technology at the LIAZ Pattern Shop manufacturing company. We describe the structure of the agent community, types of agents, implementation of the planning strategy and its incorporation within the real production environment.
