The new reconfigurable manufacturing paradigm requires development of systematic methods, and software tools, for the rapid design and builds up of production systems that change the capacity and functionality in response to the market demand. The effectiveness of reconfiguration depends upon the development of such tools. In this work, the new concept consisting of ontology knowledge based systems...
This paper proposes a middleware architecture that serves as a framework for the management of industrial processes in an industrial grid environment. The proposed system is based on agents making possible the effective distribution of intelligence, thus fortifying the survivability of the industrial network, while a central point of monitoring and control allows agent monitoring. By the term `agent'...
Collaborative e-commerce provides an increased level of flexibility and dynamicity and generates an entrepreneurial competitive edge. Widely accepted implementation frameworks like RosettaNet may be utilized to provide generic inter-enterprise B2B infrastructure. This paper presents an innovative approach towards utilizing RosettaNet in combination with Web services and ontologies for the enforcement...
Enterprise integration is significant for the enforcement of novel business models in an enterprise/industry. The great heterogeneity of systems/applications in the enterprise environment requires the introduction of interoperability aspects in order to resolve integration problems in a flexible and dynamic way. Our approach introduces an advanced enterprise semantic model representing both enterprise...
Ontologies present a state-of-the-art technology for the provision of machine-readable semantics. Its utilization for the annotation of end-to-end enterprise/industrial processes characterizing advanced collaborative business models, largely contributes to enterprise interoperability, flexibility and component reusability. Our work in this paper emphasizes on the use of ontologies in combination with...
The European project Proteus aimed at developing a generic software architecture for Web-based e-maintenance. The goal was to propose a good technical and management support to optimize the maintenance strategy, to improve maintenance performance and reliability and finally to reduce maintenance costs. We introduce a notion of semantic e-maintenance platform based on the common semantic and ontology...
In this paper, MASCONTROL, a multiagent system (MAS) for system identification and process control, is presented. This MAS implements a self-tuning regulator (STR) scheme. In this work, an ontology agent (OA) is included, using DAML+OIL as ontology language. From their experience, the authors consider this architecture highly useful for identification and control processes
