چکیده

The intelligent use of tools is a general and important human competence that AI research has not yet examined in depth. Other fields have studied the topic, however, with results we can compile into a broad characterization of habile (tool-using) agents. In this paper we give an overview of research on the use of physical tools, using this information to motivate the development of artificial habile agents. Specifically, we describe how research goals and methods in animal cognition overlap with those in artificial intelligence. We argue that analysis of activities of tool-using agents offers an informative way to evaluate intelligence.

A Design Tool for Autonomous Group Agents

Autonomous group agents coordinate cooperative activities in spatially distributed groups of people who communicate via electronic mail. The highly asynchronous nature of remote communication poses a problem for the design of such programmed agents. This paper describes a tool supporting the consistent design of the communication behaviour of autonomous group agents. The tool will support the d...

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....

From model checking to equilibrium checking

Equilibrium checking is concerned with establishing whether a given temporal logic formula φ is satisfied in some or all equilibrium computations of a multi-agent system – that is, whether the system will exhibit the behaviour φ under the assumption that agents within the system act rationally in pursuit of their preferences. After motivating and introducing the framework of equilibrium checkin...

Micael: An Autonomous Mobile Agent System to Protect New Generation Networked Applications

Here we present a research project to create and deploy an Intrusion Detection System based on Autonomous Mobile Software Agents. An Intrusion Detection System is an administration/management tool that identifies and reacts to intrusion and unauthorized use attempts. These agents will use mobility facilities, allowing an efficient use of resources, by dynamically distributing processing tasks, ...
