Intelligent agent technologies promises in emerging arena: mass customisation

TLDR
In this article, the authors provide a guideline on how intelligent agent technologies can be employed to deal with these complex issues and provide a framework for producers to produce a variety of products which are individually designed for each customer.
Abstract
Due to market conditions many production system begin to follow customer-oriented philosophy which leads to Mass Customisation Systems. Mass Customisation provides a framework for producers to produce a variety of products which are individually designed for each customer. Therefore, it requires dealing with an explosive number of product variations and customer orders and increases the complexity of activities. This paper provides a guideline on how intelligent agent technologies can be employed to deal with these complex issues.
