摘要
A formal representation of an agent's external environment is proposed, that can be used in information flow analysis. An autoregressive process of second order is applied as the mathematical tool. The dependency X(t) = f[X(0), X(1)] is derived and the characteristic features of the dynamics of the external environment are discussed. The proposed formal representation increases the set of tools for modelling and simulation of autonomous functioning manufacturing agents. It allows for the agent rigorous information input definition and assists systems analysts in the evaluation of an information structure using different attributes of the external environment.
