Resource Allocation Problem in Manufacturing Grid Based on JADE

Article Preview

Abstract:

The grid resources scheduling problem is one of the key problem in manufacturing grid. After studying on manufacturing grid resource property and requirement on scheduling, the scheduling method based on multi-agent and genetic algorithm is put forward. Contract Net Protocol is adopted to the multi-agent cooperation and negotiation system. The communication and interaction mechanism are guarantee on the JADE and JGAP platform. Simulation result shows that the method is effective to the negotiation and scheduling problem in manufacturing grid.
