Abstract
Agent paradigm is a technology recognized as potent tool for the 21st century manufacturing system. Researches are ongoing in the applications of agent technology to manufacturing enterprise, production process planning and scheduling, shop floor control, and to reconfigurable manufacturing system as an implementation case study. The article presents the results of a review of published articles on agents’ usage at manufacturing enterprise level for reconfigurable manufacturing system between year 2008 and 2018 to provide up to date pictures of the technological function of agents and multi agents within the reconfigurable conceptualized manufacturing circles. The paper is view from the angle of wide coverage, broad scope of multi-agent techniques and a focus on real world applications. The outcomes include behavioral pattern and trends of agents and multi-agent’s usage in manufacturing enterprise resource planning and supply chain managements, the gaps yet to be fill for consolidating future on industry 4.0 in reconfigurable manufacturing system, and development of mobile apps interacting platform for IoT real time database communication and coordination for RBPM controller agents.
