Title
Multi-agent systems to enable Industry 4.0
Abstract
The discussion paper "14.0 language: vocabulary, message structure and semantic interaction protocols of the 14.0 language", published by the working group "Semantics and Interaction of Industry 4.0 Components" of the GMA, also known as UAG of the AG 1 of the platform Industry 4.0 (I4.0), presented a concept for the language between 14.0 components. The main conclusion is: The increasing networking and cooperation of components enable new forms of organization and control. A clear understanding of machine interactions paves self-organized and self-optimized value creation in 14.0. Agent-based systems are an option for the realization of such 14.0 architectures. Due to their features, software agents are particularly well suited for representing 14.0 components and enabling 14.0 interactions. Agents are not only able to understand the necessary machine languages, but also the essential mechanisms for self-organization and self-optimization in value creation. The paper focuses on 14.0 scenarios described by the Platform 14.0 that describes challenges for the industry towards its digital future and demonstrates how emerging challenges in the area of 14.0 can be met with the help of agent-based systems.
