Abstract: Abstract Railway container hub scheduling system is a typical discrete element dynamic system (DEDS) which has the feature of high randomness, low flexibility, and uncertainty of operation time and high coordination demand of facilities. Multi-agent systems (MAS) have demonstrated their potential for solving complex problems which are asynchronism, concurrency, distributivity, parallel and overcome the disadvantages when faces complex discrete element dynamic system. According to the analysis of layout, establishment, facility and operation procedure of railway container hub, this paper chooses MAS as the basis to build the railway container hub scheduling system model, analyzes the function of each agent, and describes the schedule procedure analysis of agents.
