The Distributed Control of Multi-Kiln Wood Drying Environment Based on Multi Agent System

Abstract:

This paper introduces the basic performances of the multi-agent system. And according to the wood drying kiln distributed characteristics and the actual requirements of the wood drying factory, apply Multi-Agent System to the control of the wood drying; establish a multi-agent control system with the hierarchical control method. The system efficiently achieves the distributed control environment of the wood drying. And discuss about the real-time agent’s hardware structure in detail. Meanwhile apply the fuzzy theory to real-time intelligent agent’s software algorithm. And use it on the simulation experiment. Experimental results show that this method can improve the overall efficiency of the system. Application with this method in wood drying control is advanced.
