Abstract
The Internet of Things (IoT) and its infrastructures for ubiquitous, grid and cloud computing map well with the manufacturing environment and its needs to decentralize and distribute in order to increase its levels of flexibility, agility and dependability. Multi Agent Systems (MAS) make it possible to increase the autonomy and flexibility in the industrial environment allowing for an increase in the level of integration and interoperability of manufacturing applications and systems. Different applications mandate the integration of IoT devices and knowledge in manufacturing processes. The present work presents an approach that makes it possible to integrate IoT devices to a MAS based manufacturing environment.
