Abstract

Worldwide cooperation among manufacturing companies is increasingly gaining importance to face emerging challenges in manufacturing. The traditional Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) systems cannot satisfy the needs of global market as they are deployed only within an enterprise. Therefore, a more flexible and comprehensive integrating methodology is required to overcome distance barriers, facility sharing problems and communication obstacles. These issues lead to the concept of Virtual CIM (VCIM). In this paper, the limitations of current agent based implementation of VCIM concept are analyzed. It also describes approaches to address those limitations and propose further development on Agent based Resource Scheduling Process in Small and Medium Enterprises in VCIM network.
