Abstract

Event management is a problem in the supply chain context that requires a solution with the goal of mitigate the event effect during the execution plan. We present an autonomous agent-based approach to support a system for this problem. Our proposal introduces two novel aspects: we conceive the system as a collaborative inter-organizational information system and we aim to provide autonomous mechanisms for the system to perform proactive control actions. We develop an example illustrating the principal concept and how this decomposition and collaborative negotiations allow finding a solution to an exception.
