Abstract
Multi-agent manufacturing lacks of design methodology. The aim of this paper is to present a formalisation method that enables the designer to characterise multi-agent manufacturing systems in reliability and robustness. This characterisation allows the designer to estimate some characteristics of the system to be designed before its realisation. Finally we present an example of design on the multi-agent machine-tool Shiva.
