敏捷虚拟企业中基于CORBA的多级代理建模

敏捷制造虚拟企业（Agile Virtual Enterprise,AVE）作为一种新型的制造模式正在逐渐兴起。将CORBA技术应用到制造业中，根据制造业自身的特点，提出了分布式制造系统的多级代理模型。在该模型中，代理表示虚拟组织中某一功能部件或任务执行点；工作流表示代理之间相互依赖的关系；事件触发机制实现代理之间的互操作。由此，虚拟组织的运作和产品的协同开发就有了可靠的实现依据 。     

基于FP算法的AVE局部模型划分

局部模型的划分是简化敏捷虚拟企业(Agile Virtual Enterprise,AVE)决策问题的重要方法,划分结果可能直接影响到敏捷虚拟企业的建立方式、AVE模型的优化以及合作伙伴的选择等。为了很好地完成AVE局部模型的划分问题,提出一种基于多层反馈神经网络的局部模型划分方法。该方法采用三层网络结构,各层完成指定的任务,第一层完成各输入向量的相似度是否大于给定值的判别;第二层则将相似度大于给定值的输入向量映射到同一类值,从而完成预分类;再利用反馈网络的反馈作用完成最后的分类。其结构清晰、分类灵活、学习的复杂性最低且网络的性能良好。

A conceptual framework for agent-based agile manufacturing cells

Abstract. Agile manufacturing techniques are perceived as the manufacturing systems of the future. Agile manufacturing cells are dynamic and reconfigurable and the modelling of the manufacturing cells and its interaction mechanism is critical to its successful use. This paper deals with the architecture and cooperation mechanism of web‐based agile manufacturing cells. Based on an analysis of structure and organization requirements of agile manufacturing cells and a comparison of three basic architectures of manufacturing systems, the quasi‐heterarchical architecture is used for the agile manufacturing cell. Functional layers are defined in this architecture to make the cell's control system reconfigurable and reusable. Agent technology is adopted for implementation of each layer's functions to establish an agent‐based model of agile manufacturing cells. Four types of agents including cooperation agent, job management agent, resource broker agent, and resource control agent are defined, and their functions discussed. Finally, a real time interaction mechanism of the agents is presented by considering the activities during the agents’ cooperation in an agile manufacturing cell.     

Using metrics in Agile and Lean Software Development – A systematic literature review of industrial studies

ContextSoftware industry has widely adopted Agile software development methods. Agile literature proposes a few key metrics but little is known of the actual metrics use in Agile teams.ObjectiveThe objective of this paper is to increase knowledge of the reasons for and effects of using metrics in industrial Agile development. We focus on the metrics that Agile teams use, rather than the ones used from outside by software engineering researchers. In addition, we analyse the influence of the used metrics.MethodThis paper presents a systematic literature review (SLR) on using metrics in industrial Agile software development. We identified 774 papers, which we reduced to 30 primary studies through our paper selection process.ResultsThe results indicate that the reasons for and the effects of using metrics are focused on the following areas: sprint planning, progress tracking, software quality measurement, fixing software process problems, and motivating people. Additionally, we show that although Agile teams use many metrics suggested in the Agile literature, they also use many custom metrics. Finally, the most influential metrics in the primary studies are Velocity and Effort estimate.ConclusionThe use of metrics in Agile software development is similar to Traditional software development. Projects and sprints need to be planned and tracked. Quality needs to be measured. Problems in the process need to be identified and fixed. Future work should focus on metrics that had high importance but low prevalence in our study, as they can offer the largest impact to the software industry.     

Architectural requirements for rapid development of agile manufacturing systems

As product life cycle becomes shortened, high product quality becomes necessary for survival, and continuous and unexpected change becomes key obstacles in success, the need for a method of rapidly and cost-effectively developing products, production facilities and supporting software including design, process planning, shop floor control systems becomes urgent. The essence of this concept of manufacturing would be characterized by adopting a new term “agility”. Agile manufacturing can be successfully accomplished using various well-defined system architecture. This paper provides a primary sketch of architectural requirements for rapid development of agile manufacturing systems.There are several aspects of system architecture : control, function, process, information, communication, distribution, development, and implementation.In the past, the confusion of those architectures prohibited the successful construction of the automated CIM systems.     

WebSphere Portal 6.1: an agile development success story

Agile software development techniques are promising to deliver software faster, in better quality, and at a lower cost. Most examples relate to small, co-located teams working on a completely new project, with no legacy. This article focuses on applying Agile methods to a world-wide project with hundreds of developers delivering a market-leading product.In contrast to projects starting from scratch, existing customers have natural demands for support, bug fixes, and new features that focus on their particular needs.This article provides an overview of the most important Agile software development methods in addition to presenting ideas and solutions on how to apply Agile ideas to a large, existing product or solution. Important aspects that should be considered while deciding on what the Agile setup for your next software project should look like are explained.     

Supporting the deployment of ISO-based project management processes with agile metrics

Agile approaches are well perceived in software development companies. These approaches are not faced with traditional process models. This research analyses how by defining and monitoring a set of Agile metrics, Agile mature companies can be also conformant with the best practices proposed by the targeted ISO process reference models. Conformance has been identified with five Technical Management processes of the ISO/IEC/IEEE 12207 standard and with two activities of the Project Management process of the ISO/IEC TR 29110-5-1-2 standard. The findings may be of the interest of those Agile settings that need to work according to the process model established in the company.
