A BDI architecture for normative decision making
نویسندگان
چکیده
Norms, to become effective, must be recognised as norms by agents. These agents must be able to accept norms but maintaining their autonomy. In this paper, the multicontext BDI agent architecture has been extended with a recognition and a normative context in order to allow agents to acquire norms from their environment and consider norms in their decision making processes.

Norms are an important part of human social systems, governing many aspects of group decision-making. Yet many popularly used social models neglect to model normative effects on human behavior, relying on simple probabilistic and majority voting models of influence diffusion. Within the multi-agent research community, the study of norm emergence, compliance, and adoption has resulted in new arc...
متن کاملA Game Theoretic Approach to Norms and Agents
In recent years, multi-agent systems have become one of the most promising approaches for organizing software. However, the demand for capabilities of autonomous decision making poses some requirements on agent architectures. It is necessary, in fact, that the behavior of an agent be suitably constrained to make it socially compatible with the community of agents. In this paper, we propose a mo...

The BDI model, as a practical reasoning architecture aims at making decisions about what to do based on cognitives notions as beliefs, desires and intentions. However, during the decision making process, BDI agents also have to make background decisions like choosing what intention to achieve next from a set of possibly conflicting desires; which plan to execute from among the plans that satisf...

Agent-based simulations are now widely used to study complex systems. However, the problem of the agent design is still an open issue, especially for social-ecological models, where some of the agents represent human beings. In fact, designing complex agents able to act in a believable way is a difficult task, in particular when their behaviour is led by many conflicting needs and desires. A wi...
