# Kitchen Management System
## Overview
The Kitchen Management System is a Java-based simulation designed to demonstrate the capabilities of multi-agent systems within a kitchen environment. Utilizing the Java Agent DEvelopment Framework (JADE), this application simulates various kitchen operations such as order processing, delivery, inventory management, and customer interactions through a series of interconnected agents.
## Features
- **Multi-Agent Coordination**: Implements several agents that manage different aspects of kitchen operations, coordinating seamlessly to simulate a real kitchen environment.
- **Real-Time Inventory Management**: Tracks inventory in real-time and automatically orders new supplies when stocks are low.
- **Order Processing and Delivery**: Simulates the receipt, preparation, and delivery of orders.
- **Interactive GUI**: Provides a graphical user interface for real-time monitoring and management of kitchen operations.
- **Logging and Monitoring**: Includes comprehensive logging of actions and a monitoring agent that oversees system operations.
## Gui Example
## Prerequisites
- Java JDK 11 or higher
- Eclipse, IntelliJ IDEA, or any compatible Java IDE
- JADE (Java Agent DEvelopment Framework)
## Installation
1. **Clone the Repository**
```bash
git clone https://github.com/liviuxyz-ctrl/Kitchen-Management-System
```
2. **Navigate to the Project Directory**
```bash
cd kitchen-management-system
```
3. **Set Up JADE**
Ensure JADE is installed and configured in your IDE. [JADE Setup Guide](https://jade.tilab.com/documentation/tutorials-guides/).
## System Architecture
The system integrates multiple Java classes and agents, each handling specific aspects of kitchen management:
### Main Entry
- **Main.java**: Initializes and starts all agents and the GUI component, setting the operational stage for the system.
### Agents
- **ClientAgent**: Manages order processing including time calculations and inventory deductions.
- **ConsoleOutputStream**: Redirects console output to the GUI for real-time monitoring.
- **DeliveryAgent**: Simulates the delivery process of orders.
- **InventoryAgent**: Monitors and manages inventory levels, and triggers restocking.
- **MonitorAgent**: Provides system status updates and monitoring.
- **OrderGeneratorAgent**: Randomly generates new orders or based on specified criteria.
- **OrderProcessorAgent**: Processes incoming orders and coordinates with inventory and delivery.
- **ReorderAgent**: Automates reordering of low-stock items.
- **UserInterfaceAgent**: Bridges the GUI with the backend agents for command processing and data retrieval.
- **ConsoleOutputStream**: Redirects console output to the GUI for real-time monitoring.
- **KitchenManagementGUI**: Facilitates interaction with the system through a graphical user interface.
### Communication
- Agents communicate using ACL messages to manage tasks and share information efficiently.
## Usage
1. **Start the System**
- Open your IDE and load the project.
- Run `Main.java` to start all agents and the GUI.
2. **Interact with the GUI**
- Use the GUI to initiate new orders, view inventory levels, and monitor ongoing processes.
3. **Shutdown**
- Close the GUI window or stop the IDE's running process to terminate the application.
