چکیده
This paper copes with the problem of integrating peer-to-peer and multi-agent systems for the realization of both large-scale multi-agent systems and sophisticated peer-to-peer applications. In particular, it presents how JADE, one of the best known and most used software framework for the development of multi-agent systems, has been extended with a peer-to-peer technology, and how a JADE multi-agent system can be overlapped over a peer-to-peer system to provide more sophisticated services.

Enhancing Multi-Agent Systems with Peer-to-Peer and Service-Oriented Technologies
Peer-to-peer and service-oriented technologies have emerged as the dominant means for realizing scalable and interoperable distributed applications. This incontrovertible fact seems to nullify the expectation of multi-agent system researchers that agents could play a fundamental role in realizing such applications. However, from a deeper analysis, it is plain that neither peer-to-peer nor servi...
متن کاملPeer-to-Peer and Multi-Agent Systems technologies for Knowledge Management Applications. An Agent-Oriented analysis
This paper focuses on a framework for developing knowledge management (KM) applications that integrates peer-to-peer (P2P) and multi-agent systems (MAS) technologies. The objective of this framework is to support a particular KM paradigm that emphasizes aspects such as autonomy and distributedness of knowledge sources. In particular, we present a characterization of peer-to-peer in terms of a g...
متن کاملP2P Network Trust Management Survey
Peer-to-peer applications (P2P) are no longer limited to home users, and start being accepted in academic and corporate environments. While file sharing and instant messaging applications are the most traditional examples, they are no longer the only ones benefiting from the potential advantages of P2P networks. For example, network file storage, data transmission, distributed computing, and co...
متن کاملIntegrating Peer-to-Peer Networking and Computing in the AgentScape Framework
The combination of peer-to-peer networking and agentbased computing seems to be a perfect match. Agents are cooperative and communication oriented, while peerto-peer networks typically support distributed systems in which all nodes have equal roles and responsibilities. AgentScape is a framework designed to support large-scale multi-agent systems. Pole extends this framework with peerto-peer co...
متن کاملExtending the JADE Framework for Semantic Peer-To-Peer Service Based Applications
One of the main challenges of multi-agent systems is to become the main means to support legacy systems interoperability and to make the realization of scalable distributed systems easy. In the last years, however, two technologies, peer-to-peer and service-oriented, have made an impressive progress and seem to have good chances of competing with multi-agent systems for the realization of scala...
