چکیده

In this paper we sketch a new approach for agent design and operability called co-designing agents (CDA). As a working definition, we take a CDA to be an agent that participates in some aspect of its own design. The precise manner and degree of a CDA’s participation will ultimately be a design-time decision, but by considering a specific agent implementation (that of AI actor-agents in a virtual drama) we are able to extract a general set of CDA requirements. The CDA approach utilizes concepts from several areas of active research in AI. We present a broad summary of the relevant literature and discuss its applicability to CDA design. We then consider the SNePS knowledge representation, reasoning, and acting system as a potential CDA implementation platform.

Norm-based agency for designing collaborative information systems

Information systems are organizations in which signs are created, processed and consumed. In order to fulfil the organizational goals and objectives, its members must understand their responsibilities and authorities, and must act co-operatively. The key to this organization and co-ordination lies in norms, which define responsibilities and authorities for each human agent, and establish regula...

Designing Solvable Graphs for Multiple Moving Agents

Solvable Graphs (also known as Reachable Graphs) are types of graphs that any arrangement of a specified number of agents located on the graph’s vertices can be reached from any initial arrangement through agents’ moves along the graph’s edges, while avoiding deadlocks (interceptions). In this paper, the properties of Solvable Graphs are investigated, and a new concept in multi agent moti...

Hierarchical Co-evolution of Cooperating Agents Acting in the Brain-Arena

Recently, many brain-inspired models have been used in attempts to support the cognitive abilities of artificial organisms. In this article, we introduce a computational framework to facilitate these efforts, emphasizing the cooperative performance of brain substructures. Specifically, we introduce an agent-based representation of brain areas, together with a hierarchical cooperative co-evoluti...

The Art of Designing Socially Intelligent Agents: Science, Fiction, and the Human in the Loop

In this paper socially intelligent agents (SIA) are understood as agents which do not only from an observer point of view behave socially but which are able to recognize and identify other agents and establish and maintain relationships to other agents. The process of building socially intelligent agents is innuenced by what the human as the designer considers`social', and conversely agent tool...

Designing a reusable co-ordination module for co-operative industrial control applications - Control Theory and Applications, IEE Proceedings-

Distributed artificial intelligence (DAI) systems, in which multiple agents communicate and co-operate with one another to achieve their individual and collective goals, are a promising enabling technology for constructing large, realworld industrial control applications. To facilitate the development of such systems a number of generic DAI frameworks have been devised. These frameworks typical...
