Abstract

This paper presents a bottom-up solution for the supply network coordination problem. This manuscript treats the coordination as an ongoing task and takes disturbances and exceptions as business as usual. A manufacturing control and coordination mechanism based on PROSA and ants [Hadeli et al. (2003). Self-organising in multi-agent coordination and control using stigmergy. ESOA] is used as base for the overall coordination of the supply network. Reputation serves to enforce the social behaviour among the production entities. The interactions of the control mechanism with the reputation models are given.
