Research On Information System Prototype For Mass Customization Based On Multi-Agent

In recent decades, more and more merchandise has lead to drastic competition in the market and diversification of customers' needs. Mass Customization (MC), which is paid much more attention to, satisfies personal requirements and provides corresponding products or services for customers with high efficiency but at low cost.MC, which is driven by information, depends on the efficiency of its information system to a great extent. Therefore, such an information system is badly needed to make sure the realization of MC. With this purpose, this dissertation studies the architecture of MC information system first and then analyzes and designs its system with Unified Modeling Language (UML).Based on studying and inheriting existing achievements in this field from both domain and abroad, this dissertation:(1) studied MC architecture and constructed reconfigurable MC information system architecture based on Multi-Agent;(2) finished the analysis and design work of MC information system prototype with UML;(3) finished the analysis and design work of databases with UML;(4) specified the development environment and elementarily constructed the prototype system with AgentBuilder.
