説明
In a previous paper we proposed a new kind of factory system that uses mobile robots to transport parts and materials between assembly stations. In this system, which we call an `assembly network,' the factory's assembly stations operate independently of a centralized production plan and negotiate with each other (via message passing) for access to robots. Using this assembly network as a testbed, we are developing distributed algorithms to allow the stations to organize themselves into small `communication clusters.' In this paper we will describe the current clustering algorithm that we are using in more detail than in the previous paper.© (1998) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.
