| dc.description.abstract | The increasing need for more adaptive production environments is a big motivator for the adoption of agentbased technologies in industrial systems, as they provide better mechanisms for handling dynamically and intelligently various kinds of production disturbances. Unlike with the utilization of most conventional automation languages, the use of agentes enables, in an easy way, the setup of dynamic and autonomous adaptive processes to handle large and complex engineering system functions and interactions. Agent-technologies in cyberphysical systems contexts require at some point integration with automation controllers. However, most commonly available and used agent system implementations in the industry were not designed for hard real-time control use cases, and do not utilize real-time operating systems or dedicated hardware. Hence, they cannot match the hard-real-time performance of automation controllers. This work provides some insights on the performance that can be achieved with agent-based approaches that integrate with low-level automation system functions. It considers the performance of the agent-based practices in light of non-real-time dedicated hardware or operating systems. The results show that agents are well suited for the majority of soft-real-time control applications. | pt_PT |
