A self organized holonic control for mechatronics complex systems: application to a robotized car park

In this paper, we describe the two conditions so that a complex system, composed of several mechatronics machines, may be qualified as a mechatronics system. The first condition reflects the aptitude of these machines to work together without the intervention of a central decision system of higher hierarchical level. The second reflects their aptitude to manage their own behavior and to generate the tasks to be carried out in the context of their execution. A self organized holonic control accomplishes these conditions. An example of implementation of this approach is presented with the application to a robotized car park.
