Research on equipment supportability assessment based on agent-oriented colored petri nets

On the basis of analyzing the equipment support process and its characteristics of discrete event, combining the intelligent features of agent with behavior analyzing ability of Petri nets, the design of equipment supportability assessment based on agent-oriented colored Petri nets (AOCPN) is discussed. Then, the model of equipment support process based on AOTCPN is built up, and the interaction model based on blackboard structure is set forth. Finally, the supportability assessment simulation is studied by CPN Tools, and the feasibility of the application of the AOTCPN-based supportability assessment is validated by the results analysis.
