A system dynamics model is developed to investigate the applicability of the agent based modeling concept in the system dynamics model. The assumed problem is to forecast the size and structure of the organization with the developing market environment. The agent based modeling concept is applied to the organization part, and the other parts of the model such as market, facilities, etc. are developed with the traditional system dynamics technique. The simulation results show the agent based modeling part can be combined with the traditional system dynamics modeling with more precisions. However, the complexity increases and the simulation times are longer than those of the traditional method.

본 연구는 근접전투 손실 모델링 분야에서 좀 더 개선된 워게임 모델링 방법론을 제시한다. 지금까지 군사 운영분석가들은 랜체스터형 미분 방정식과 같은 방정식 기반 모델링 방법론을 사용해서 전투손실 평가를 하고 있다. 방정식 기반 모델링 방법론은 워게임 모의결과를 분석 및 평가하기는 용이하나 동적인 전장환경을 모의하기에는 다수의 제한사항을 포함하고 있다. 이러한 방정식 기반 모델링 방법론의 결점을 극복하기 위해서 본 연구에서는 에이전트 기반 모델링 방법론을 제시한다. 에이전트 기반 모델링 방법론은 전투손실계수 대신에 전투손실 행위에 기반하여 근접전투를 모델링한다. 2가지 모델링 방법론에 의해서 유사한 근접전투 상황 하에서 모델링 된 자료를 모의하여 비교분석 및 평가한다.

A mobile agent is an autonomous software agent capable of moving from one computer to another while performing its tasks. We view the agent as a discrete event system in the view of its computation and communication. This paper presents a methodology far modeling and simulation of such a mobile agent system as a discrete event system. The methodology is based on the Mobile Discrete Event System Specification (MDEVS) formalism and the associated simulation environment AgentSim which are previously developed by the authors. Within the methodology an atomic model represents dynamics of a mobile agent; a coupled model is modeled as mobile agent servers for representation of structural changes between atomic agents. Being based on the object-oriented environment the modeling methodology exploits inheritance of basic classes AtomicModel and CoupledModel provided by AgentSim.

An agent is an abstract unit for problem solving in the field of distributed artificial intelligence, and an agent-based system is designed and implemented based on the definition of agent as its central concept. Agent modeling is advantageous to abstraction, disintegration and structuring for describing complex system, so its application is increased in various areas including air traffic control, power transmission, e-commerce and medicine. There is no agreed definition of agent but agents have common points as follows: autonomy, reactivity, pro-activeness and cooperation. An agent-oriented modeling is an approach of a concept different form existing object-oriented modeling. This study proposed the agent application for E-Beam manufacturing system. To evaluate the performance of the proposed process design, we used the JADE library. The JADE toolkit provides a FIPA-compliant agent platform and a package to develp Java agents. It provides a basic set of functionalities that are regarded as essential for an autonomous agent architecture.

최근 M&S 및 DM&S (Defense M&S) 환경의 복잡성이 높아짐에 따라 인간 등의 자율세력을 표현하기 위한 기술로 CGF/SAF (Computer Generated Force/Semi-Automated Force)가 주목 받고 있다. 그러나 기존의 OneSAF 과 같은 선진국의 CGF/SAF 기반 DM&S 환경은 DEVS 프레임워크 중심의 국내 DM&S 시스템과 유기적 연동이 어렵다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 DEVS M&S환경을 지원하는 에이전트 기반의 SAF 설계 방법론 및 모델링 도구를 제안하였다. 제안한 SAF 모델링 도구는 에이전트 모델링 GUI와 SAF 모델링 GUI로 나누어진다. 에이전트 모델링 환경은 간단한 UI를 활용한 규칙 입력만으로 에이전트를 생성할 수 있다. 또한 에이전트 단위테스트 환경을 추가하여 UI 기반의 에이전트 모델의 검증이 가능하다. SAF 모델을 생성하기 위한 환경으로 개개의 에이전트 모델들의 구조적 결합을 정의할 수 있도록 하였다. 본 연구의 모델링 도구 및 방법론을 통해 DM&S 연구자 및 개발자들이 DEVS 기반의 DM&S 및 SAF 시스템을 구축하는데 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

생태산업단지의 주요 목표인 무배출(zero-emission)을 달성하기 위해서는, 기업간의 효과적인 용수 재이용망의 구축이 요구된다. 다양한 서브시스템과 의사결정과정을 포함한 복잡한 망 구조를 이루기 때문에 생기는 모델링 부분에서의 문제점을 해결하기 위하여, 본 연구에서는 새로운 모델링 기법인 에이전트기반 모델링(agent based modeling, ABM)을 도입하였다. 에이전트기반 모델링 기법을 이용해 물질교환망 내의 기업을 에이전트화 하고 이를 토대로 전체 시스템을 모사하는 방법론을 제시하였으며, 이를 이용해 실제 산업단지 내 기업에 대한 간단한 용수교환망 설계 모델을 구축하였다. 에이전트기반 모델에 기초한 용수재이용망은 용수공급에서 35% 감소를 보이며 폐수 배출량은 약 50%가 감소하였다. 실제 산업단지 모델링 결과 에이전트기반 모델은 시스템 변동시에도 전체 시스템을 수정할 필요가 없으며, 시스템이 확장하는 경우에도 그 적용이 용이하기 때문에 생태산업단지와 같은 복잡한 시스템의 모델링과 설계시 유용한 기술로 사용될 수 있음을 보였다.

Due to the increasing complexity to handle conflicts and interruptions caused by resource failures and rush orders, shop control is obliged to redesign its organization according to the changing demands of the manufacturing control. These demands are leading to the development of decentralization and gradually to their permanent optimization. As a result, a powerful modeling method which can be adapted efficiently is required. The use of agent theory enables specific modeling of the relevant shop planning activities. The planning activities are modeled in a so-called activity modeling through the definition of three classes of agents; Plan Agent, Manufacturing System Agent and Control Agent as well as the description of the cooperative relationship among these agents. On the basis of the activity model the agent-based shop control method is developed which emphasizes the distributed problem-solving and the cooperation with relevant agents.

Spare part management is very important to products that have large number of parts and long lifecycle such as automobile and aircraft. Supply chain must support immediate procurement for repair. However, it is not easy to handle spare parts efficiently due to huge stock keeping units. Qualified forecasting is the basis for the supply chain to achieve the goal. In this paper, we propose an agent based modeling approach that can deal with various factors simultaneously without mathematical modeling. Simulation results show that the proposed method is reasonable to describe demand generation process, and consequently, to forecast demand of spare parts in long-term perspective.

Agent-based modeling and simulation (ABMS) is a computational method for analyzing research targets through observations of agent-to-agent interactions, and can be applied to multidimensional policy experiments in various fields of social sciences to support policy and decision making. Recently, according to increasing complexity of society and the rapid growth of collected data, the need for high-speed processing is considered to be more important in this field. For this reason, in the ABMS research field, a scalable and large-scale computing infrastructure is becoming an essential element, and cloud computing has been considered a promising infrastructure of ABMS. This paper surveys the technology trends of ABMS tools, cloud computing-based modeling, and simulation studies, and forecasts the use of cloud-computing infrastructure for future modeling and simulation tools. Although fundamental studies are underway to apply and operate cloud computing in the areas of modeling and simulation, new and additional studies are required to devise an optimal cloud computing infrastructure to satisfy the needs of large-scale ABMS.
