Towards a socio-inspired multiagent approach for new generation of product life cycle management

Abstract

The main goal of this paper is to describe new integrated methodology: Agent-based Recon-figurable Generic Organzation. This is an integrated approach which allows designing future product life cycle organizations as a class of learning, self-learning or adaptive distributed systems using high-level, sign-based communications across entire product life cycle environment named Product Related Semiosphere (PRS). The definition of PRS is a fundamental question of developing a new class of distributed semiotic systems with ability to communicate, identify and manufacture engineering artifacts with prescriptive characteristics. The paper analyses different types of product life cycle management approaches and suggests overall approach for integration of business and engineering knowledge during the whole product life-cycles. It allows to understand the interrelationships of different life-cycle stages for acquiring and manipulating concurrent engineering knowledge. The authors proposed the idea of using socio-inspired framework based on applied semiotics and distributed artificial intelligence.
