Abstract

Manufacturing jobs commonly require more than one resource in order to equip machines with tools and process jobs. To achieve a feasible production plan and control its execution in an agent-based decentral production we developed a new approach presented in this paper. We introduce a negotiation procedure, based on the job priority and overlapping time slots across all resources. In addition, we provide simulative evidence that our approach is superior, in terms of time-based key performance indicators, to commonly used queuing procedures and the approach provides a more stable production under uncertain customer order arrivals and deviating processing times.
