Abstract

The paper describes an ontological model of a planning object, which provides flexible configuration of multi-agent resource management systems. The authors propose using the basic ontology of resource planning and then building it up for significantly different domains. The key concept here is “Task”. A relatively universal agent can be created thanks to formalized description of various classes of tasks based on this concept. It can also be customized to a specific domain area. Based on the ontology, an enterprise knowledge base is created. It contains instances of concepts and relations. The paper also introduces new classes of agents for demand and resource networks. The authors then propose a new method of multi-agent planning using this knowledge base. This approach has been already successfully applied in several domain areas through the developed software package. The paper demonstrates that the use of ontologies can improve the quality and efficiency of planning by taking into account multiple factors in real time, thus reducing the cost of creating and maintaining multi-agent systems, as well as development times and risks.
