Automatic shop floor control system in distributed computing context is one of the most important links in Computer Integrated Manufacturing (or CIM) system. For most agent-based manufacturing control systems, a real-time product data available mechanism is not considered. In this paper, an integrated approach of RFID technology and multi-agent system of shot-floor control is presented. The proposed framework uses RFID for tracking products in the system and also for attaching product manufacturing information. This shift from off-line planning systems to on-line control systems will facilitate implementations of real-time scheduling requirement in autonomous manufacturing environment.
