Abstract: Distributed enterprises and departments require a concurrent CAPP environment to satisfy multi users and tasks. As an important method of research and design, the agent technology is employed to meet this requirement. But the difficulty, i.e. the key point, is how to make all the agents work corporately. Therefore, based on the fully research on the cooperation model of multi agent, the blackboard infrastructure-based cooperation mechanism is used to construct a management agent. In addition, combined with examples, the process of cooperation algorithm is analyzed. Thus, a good concurrent CAPP working environment is given among different CAPP units, which are distributed in different regions, or have different types of work.

Key words: distributed CAPP, agent, concurrent cooperation, blackboard infrastructure
