چکیده
This paper summarises a presentation made to a meeting on Intelligent Agent Technology organised by the EPSRC Community Club in Advanced Computing Techniques. The paper briefly reviews the needs, objectives and difficulties of standardisation for intelligent agents, then discusses one particular current activity: the Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agents (FIPA). In particular, the FIPA 97 standard is discussed, and the main features of the three key technology areas are introduced. Ongoing work in the FIPA programme is also outlined.

A regulator, seeking to maximize net benefits, must choose between rules and standards and then set a level of care. The regulated agents have private information about their compliance costs. Rules are set ex ante, so agents know the required level of care. Standards are established after agents have taken initial actions, in anticipation of the regulating bureau’s directive. Those actions all...

متن کاملInfluence of Total Anthocyanins from Bitter Melon (Momordica charantia Linn.) as Antidiabetic and Radical Scavenging Agents
The majority of the antioxidant and antidiabetic activities of fruits are anthocyanins, a group of polyphenolics that are responsible for the color of many fruits, vegetables and flowers. The harvesting time, storage conditions, maturity, extraction steps etc. are very important for the biological activities based on the alteration of chemical composition. The free radical scavenging and antidi...

متن کاملMobile agents can benefit from standards efforts on inter-agent communication
On the road for the future success of mobile agents, we believe that inter-agent communication is an issue that has not been adequately addressed by the mobile agents community. Supplementing mobile agents with the ability to interact with other mobile or static agents, or agentified information sources is a necessity in the vastly heterogeneous arena where mobile agents are called to compete. ...
