چکیده

The ACORN provides an agent based architecture for infor mation retrieval and provision across networks The main objective of this paper is to present the design and implementation of information sharing in a community of mobile agents in ACORN based on keyphrase sharing and comparison among agents In keyphrase based information sharing keyphrases and their weights are used to represent user interests and document contents Agents use these keyphrase weight pairs to nd other relevant agents Two similarity measures the substring indexing method and the Cosine measure method are compared The ACORN with Cosine measure is found to be more e cient in terms of meaningful information exchange and execution time

The ACORN multi-agent system

ACORN (Agent-based Community Oriented Routing Network) is a distributed multi-agent architecture for the search, distribution and management of information in networks. ACORN utilizes the concept of ‘information as agent’ together with an application of Stanley Milgram’s Small World Problem (the idea of Six Degrees of Separation) in order to route individual items of information around networks...

A Community of Autonomous Agents for the Search and Distribution of Information in Networks

The ACORN architecture is a multi-agent based information retrieval and provision system which uses the concept of ‘document as agent’ coupled with a community-based approach to information sharing. In the system, with the minimum of effort, users can expect to be provided with timely information on subjects in their areas of interest, whilst being able to search for information as they wish. T...

A Context-aware Architecture for Mental Model Sharing through Semantic Movement in Intelligent Agents

Recent studies in multi-agent systems are paying increasingly more attention to the paradigm of designing intelligent agents with human inspired concepts. One of the main cognitive concepts driving the core of many recent approaches in multi agent systems is shared mental models. In this paper, we propose an architecture for sharing mental models based on a new concept called semantic movement....

Architectural Components of Information-Sharing Societies

Two similar multiagent systems have been designed to address the issue of information sharing within a multiagent system. This paper examines architectural components that have been added to our information sharing societies, ACORN and MP3. Through this exploration, we conclude that these components and their underlying concepts can be added to other information retrieval societies. ACORN consi...

A Performance Evaluation of the Acorn

ACORN (Agent-based Community Oriented Retrieval Network) is a multi-agent system which uses agents to provide information across inter-net/intranet networks. In this report, we adapt the ACORN architecture for its performance evaluation on single and multiple servers, running on single and multiple machines. In order to evaluate the performance of ACORN, we introduce a novel concept of multiple...
