 esearch interests includes:\n- Life cycle engineering\, specifically\, reu
 se of parts using network agents\n- Product modeling and STEP (Standard fo

 y\nAbstract : Managing information on individual parts throughout their li
 fe cycle is a requisite for promoting their reuse. For that purpose\, we h
 ave been developing a part agent system that uses network agents and RFID 
 technology. A part agent proposes appropriate maintenance actions for a pa
 rt based on information about its life cycle. This talk discusses a method
  for a part agent to predict possible states of the corresponding part and
  to propose replacement of parts by using a Bayesian network based on the 
 information collected on the state of the part\, consumer preferences on m
 aintenance and its usage.
