Abstract
Software agent-based computing is emerging as an essential technology for developing commercial distributed systems to deal with the uncertainty in a dynamic business environment. Supply chain management (SCM) systems help to manage industry-specific business processes, services, and information flow among the stakeholders. Transportation network design and development is an essential part of effective supply chain management. The transport networks use different travel corridors for regular operations. The global supply chain transport corridors include various infrastructural components (e.g., border clearance authority, package handling machinery, weighbridge). The traffic and transportation systems domain are well suited for an agent-based approach because transportation systems are usually geographically distributed in a dynamic changing environment. This chapter describes a multi-agent software system to model and simulate transportation corridor use cases. The experimental simulation results provide potential guidance.
