Abstract

Manufacturing entities in a supply-chain network may face difficulties in coordinating themselves due to different organizational conventions, locally specific restrictions, and conflicting objectives. This paper focuses on the study of a collaborative decision paradigm for operational coordination among manufacturing facilities in manufacturing logistics network. The aim of this work is to propose a collaborative coordination mechanism that allows the distributed production system to perform just as well as a centralized one using the notion of collaborative agents. Two search methods incorporated in the coordination mechanism are investigated with various test scenarios under partial information sharing environment.
