Wireless Holons Network for Intralogistics Service

This paper continues our previous research works on holonic and isoarchic control solution for manufacturing systems control based on the PROSIS model, this time considering WSN technology as support for new opportunities of flexibility, security and performance for production systems. First, the objectives are addressed. The WSN technology allows the association of a decision-making capacity to each physical entity of the production system. An application to an intralogistics service in a Job Shop is presented. New opportunities for intelligent control of production systems are highlighted.
