The Study of Multi-Agent System Based on Decentralized Control Supply Chain Planning System

Abstract:

The study on the decentralized control supply chain system is an important content of supply chain management (SCM) under the highly developed information technology environment.In order to enhance and improve the response speed and adaptability of changing market environment for the current supply chain planning system, this article used the theory of Multi-Agent system(MAS) operation mechanism in comparison with decentralized control supply chain system and others on the basis of the similarity and adaptability, then proposed a method of using the multi-agent system technology to solve the problem of the decentralized control supply chain production planning. Through further analysis, the article gave different production planning framework model according competition-cooperation relationship under decentralized control supply chain system.
