Multi-agent Based Booking of Consignment for Supply Chain Management
The main objective of this paper is to design a sub module named “Booking of Consignment” for SCM architecture which increases flexibility in freight transport by interlinking organizational and operating Processes. Combined with the use of small autonomous transport units, this helps to meet changed market requirements for freight transport .Booking of Consignment using multi-agent technology which deals with warehouse goods inventory details, registration for consignment booking fee collection of the goods in a SCM environment. An Agent-based Modeling is an approach based on the idea that a system is composed of decentralized individual ‘agents and that each agent interacts with other agents according to its localized knowledge.
