Abstract

A Manufacturing Agent-Based Emulation System (MABES) is developed as an open framework for design and analysis of discrete manufacturing systems. MABES currently supports the transition from traditional to lean manufacturing in two major functions: analysis of alternative agent-based scheduling and control approaches that can be implemented across the extended enterprise; and real-time collaboration of design teams during manufacturing line design and analysis stages. MABES bases its support for these functions on two system paradigms: distributed agents and synchronous collaboration.
