| Research Abstract |
Part agent that consists of network agent and RFID is proposed to manage the corresponding part through its life cycle. A prototype system is developed and is applied to small computers. It is shown that hard disk drives can be replaced without delay by part agent that utilizes their error detecting function. Life cycle simulation is developed to investigate the effectiveness of part agent and it is revealed that diversity of user preference on maintenance may promote the reuse of parts.
