Abstract
This paper focuses on the discussions of innovative Multi-Agent approach to advanced real time control for flexible manufacturing systems. The architecture is based on the paradigm of Distributed Intelligence and Multi-Agent systems. This Multi-Agent prototype system involves the following functions: Scheduling, dispatching, monitoring and error handling. A new negotiation protocol for manufacturing system is also presented in this paper. The purpose of this protocol is to dynamically assign operations to the resources of the Manufacturing System in order to accomplish the proposed tasks. This protocol is able to deal with exceptions.
