Abstract(s)
Agility refers to the manufacturing system
ability to rapidly adapt to market and environmental changes
in efficient and cost-effective ways. This paper addresses the
development of self-organization methods to enhance the
operations of a scheduling system, by integrating scheduling
system, configuration and optimization into a single autonomic
process requiring minimal manual intervention to increase
productivity and effectiveness while minimizing complexity for
users. We intend to conceptualize real manufacturing systems
as interacting autonomous entities in order to build future
Decision Support Systems (DSS) for Scheduling in agile
manufacturing environments.
