چکیده

Conversations are a useful means of structuring communicative interactions among agents. The value of a conversationbased approach is largely determined by the conversational model it uses. Finite State Machines, used heavily to date for this purpose, are not su cient for complex agent interactions requiring a notion of concurrency. We propose the use of Colored Petri Nets as a model underlying a language for conversation speci cation. This carries the relative simplicity and graphical representation of the former approach, along with greater expressive power and support for concurrency. The construction of such a language, Protolingua, is currently being investigated within the framework of the Jackal agent development environment. In this paper, we explore the use of Colored Petri Nets in modeling agent communicative interaction.

Modeling Multi-Agent Systems with Hierarchical Colored Petri Nets

A new approach to model multi-agent systems with hierarchical colored Petri nets is introduced. Every agent has its colored Petri net system, when agents are composed into a MAS, we get hierarchical colored Petri net system of the multi-agent system, properties of the hierarchical colored Petri net system, such as reachability, deadlock detection and avoidance, fairness can be used to analyze d...

Modeling and Analysis of a Multi-agent System Using Colored Petri Nets ?

MATHEMA is an interactive learning environment based on multi-agent systems. The agents cooperate among each other in order to solve a given problem. Each agent of the MATHEMA is deened according to a hierarchical architecture. In this architecture the Social System is responsible for promoting the cooperative behavior between the agents. This paper presents the modeling, analysis and veriicati...
