The complexity and sophistication of current generation of industrial processes, and the growing need for autonomous agents that control physical systems, motivate the need for the development of an intelligent process operation management system. In this project, the innovative integration of theories from different scientific fields (computer systems, process engineering, systems and control engineering) provides an excellent platform for development of a smart data management tool, to oversee the major operational tasks within the plant and help the operators and engineers to make more informed decisions. Direct application of the techniques developed in this study to a pilot case study, could be used as a benchmark to show the potential benefits that can be gained through smart information use and data management.Read moreRead less
Multi-Ontologies meet UML: Improving the Software Engineering of Multi-Agent Systems. Multi-agent systems are a new style of software well suited for open, dynamic, distributed, global, heterogeneous environments such as the Internet. Systematic methods are needed to allow multi-agent systems to reason effectively with high level knowledge. This research draws on software engineering practice to develop a theory and methodology for multi-ontologies for expressing knowledge within multi-agent sys ....Multi-Ontologies meet UML: Improving the Software Engineering of Multi-Agent Systems. Multi-agent systems are a new style of software well suited for open, dynamic, distributed, global, heterogeneous environments such as the Internet. Systematic methods are needed to allow multi-agent systems to reason effectively with high level knowledge. This research draws on software engineering practice to develop a theory and methodology for multi-ontologies for expressing knowledge within multi-agent systems that facilitate adaptation and change.
