面對市場的激烈競爭與顧客的客製化需求，製造系統必須不斷提昇自動化相關技術，以適應充滿變動的製造環境。Holon因為具有自主性與協調合作能力之特徵，特別適合被應用於變動環境之中。以Holon為基礎之Holonic製造系統，係將製造系統之生產活動視為許多零件Holons與資源Holons間的協調合作，較易於適應動態之環境。本研究首先將針對Holonic製造控制系統之組成，先做完整的描述與定義，並提出以Holon為基之製造控制系統 (Holonic Manufacturing Control System)的設計方法論，使用統一模式語言(UML)為此Holonic製造控制系統之建模工具。此設計方法論係以使用案例(Use Cases)為驅動來源，並以設計模板(Design Pattern)作為方法論之核心，以供為Holon之規格設計依據。
本研究提出之設計方法論可區分為系統分析與設計、系統模擬與驗證以及系統軟體實作三個階段。首先，於系統分析與設計階段，先將一個完整的製造控制系統萃取出使用者的系統需求，利用使用案例、結構分析以及行為分析來說明Holonic製造系統之功能需求，並建構其行為模式與結構模式之組織架構圖，將分析結果設計成複雜的物件導向模式系統(Object-oriented Model System)。系統模擬與驗證階段旨在檢查與驗證此Holonic製造系統之功能需求、行為模式與結構模式的控制邏輯之合理性與驗證分析，以避免系統實作之時間浪費。最後，於軟體建構階段應用物件導向軟體系統來完成整個Holonic製造系統的建構，以物件導向模式系統與物件導向模擬系統為基礎，實作出整個Holonic製造控制系統。此外，本研究以彈性製造系統作為此Holonic製造控制系統設計方法論之範例，將此彈性製造系統，規劃成以TCP/IP網路為通訊基礎之Holonic製造控制系統實驗平台，實際建構Holonic製造控制系統軟體，來說明與驗證此方法論之優越性與可行性。

This paper presents an approach that can be applied in the design of holonic manufacturing systems (HMSs). The development combines concepts from object-oriented analysis, software architecture design, object-oriented simulation and software implementation. In object-oriented analysis, the object-oriented modeling technology is proposed as a method for capturing and representing the specification of holons with the features of reusability, re-configurability and scalability. A holonic design pattern (CWS holon) is suggested to cope with the dynamic environment without the need for major change in control software and hardware during run-time. The object-oriented simulation is used to bridge the gaps existing between object-oriented analysis/design and software programming. In software implementation, the 3-tier architecture is proposed to implement the idea of the holonic manufacturing control system based on Web-based technology.
In this paper, we both present problems and build models required for the development of holonic manufacturing control systems (HMCSs). The specific tasks are: (1) to propose an appropriate software architecture for HMCSs, (2) to define the specification of a cell-workstation (CWS) holon, (3) to advocate the use of design pattern to build reusable, reconfigurable and extendible control software for the CWS holon, (4) to design the cooperative mechanism (contract net) for better system adaptability, (5) to upgrade communication capability of exiting CNC machines from RS232C to TCP/IP based on Ethernet.
Finally, to demonstrate the proposed development, a paradigm of a holonic flexible manufacturing system was designed and implemented. Not only does this methodology require less time and cost in evolutionary control software, it also greatly enhances the competitive capability of companies operating on a flexible basis.
