Abstract

In this paper, we present the high-level architecture of an integrated resource management system for the digital ecosystem of a modern enterprise. The proposed system configuration implements the CONSORTS concept – a new kind of architecture for ubiquitous intelligent agents that provide services for modeling and forecasting the dynamics of changes in the resources of a modern enterprise. The other part of the digital ecosystem is made up of auxiliary agents for data processing, their integration and merging, normalization and filtering, converting data to a single model. We illustrate an idea of CONSORTS-based resource management system using the example of digital ecosystem of the real production enterprise. Considerations of special issues of stability design of an integrated control system in digital ecosystem accompany and complement the design issues of the semantic grounding and cognitive resources of the CONSORTS-based architectural style.
