Abstract

Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) are particularly adapted to deal with dynamic distributed environments and are typically used to manage business workflows or data flows in manufacturing systems. But, the lack of a global view and reference of the whole system by the low-level and physical parts, to actually guarantee optimal decision-making had been labelled by some researchers as 'Myopia'. Thus, this paper intents to identify some Myopias, involved in a decentralised management of production systems. A HoloMAS (HolonicMultiAgent System), whose elementary parts show signs of myopia, is defined; and we validated our HoloMAS proposal using simulations and through a real implementation on a flexible assembly cell in our university lab.
