Interfacing Agents with an Industrial Assembly System for "Plug and Produce": (Demonstration)

We present a fully implemented industrial production system that is reconfigured by a multi-agent system and is controlled by standard industrial control technology. We focus on certain design principles that we found to be crucial in such integrations, and the main challenges we faced when interfacing agents with a real-world production system.
