Abstract :
Multi-Agent Systems provide a suitable concept to easily map processes, interaction and knowledge into agents. This paper discusses the development of ontology-based multi-agent system and explores some performance of the system. We also present a typical scenario for resource allocation and demonstrate a promising approach for integration of process planning and scheduling functions.
