摘要： 根据功能结构将柔性装配系统分成几个大的组成部分，每个部分用一个联邦结构agent进行建模，联邦结构agent内部由一个调度agent和若干个普通agent组成。这种结构具有功能结构层次化、任务分解执行以及智能化和鲁棒性等优点。对系统中的agent进行了构造，描述了不同agent在系统中的角色、任务和内容。系统中的各agent之间的分工合作是以调度agent为中心，通过“投标/仲裁”和“指派/执行”两种机制来配合实现的。构建了实验平台进行实验验证。

Abstract: FAS is divided into several parts according to their functions. Each part is modeled with a federation-architecture agent (FAA). An FAA is built up by a mediator agent and some common agents. The system has many advantages, such as: hierarchical framework, intelligence and robustness, tasks are decomposed and carried out and system is easy to model. The involved agents are defined, and their roles in the architecture and the buildup that each agent would need are described. Cooperation mechanism based on bid/mediator or tell/do methods is offered. An experiment is introduced to show the merits and validness of the framework of the FAS.
