Hive-BDI: Extending Jason with Shared Beliefs and Stigmergy
نویسندگان
چکیده
The classic BDI model focuses on the internal functioning of a single-agent architecture. Neither shared beliefs nor spontaneous and indirect coordination via the environment are supported. We describe Hive-BDI, an extension of the Jason BDI-style language with shared beliefs implemented via the logic-based coordination language ReSpecT and with stigmergy obtained via digital pheromones. A case study where robots roaming an unknown environment collaborate for creating a map demonstrates the feasibility of our approach.

Integrating Jason into AgentScape - Joining BDI-theory with Agent Technology practise
In general, Computer Science agent platforms maintain a simple agent model. In contrast, Artificial Intelligence agent technology maintains a strict agent model, requiring agents to have mental notions such as beliefs, desires and intentions (BDI). This strict model offers advantages for application developers in certain domains, as it represents a higher level of abstraction than traditional p...
متن کاملCAN(PLAN)+: Extending the Operational Semantics of the BDI Architecture to deal with Uncertain Information
The BDI architecture, where agents are modelled based on their beliefs, desires and intentions, provides a practical approach to develop large scale systems. However, it is not well suited to model complex Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems pervaded by uncertainty. In this paper we address this issue by extending the operational semantics of CAN(PLAN) into CAN(PLAN)+. We s...
متن کاملUsing Jason to Develop a Team of Cowboys (a preliminary design for Agent Contest 2008)
This document describes an overview of a multi-agent system formed by a team of cowboys to compete in the Multi-Agent Programming Contest 2008 (the “Cows and Herders” scenario). In the two previous contests we tested and improved Jason , the interpreter for an agent programming language used to implement the MAS. Jason [2] is an agent platform based on an extension of an agent-oriented programm...

This paper gives an overview of a multi-agent system forming a team of “cowboys” to compete in the Multi-Agent Programming Contest 2008 (the ‘Cows and Herders’ scenario). In the two previous contests, we tested and improved Jason [2], an agent platform based on an extension of an agent-oriented programming language called AgentSpeak(L) [5]. The language is inspired by the BDI architecture, thus...
متن کاملPoster: Tweeting Visualizations for Collaborative Visual Analysis
We demonstrate a new approach to collaborative visual analysis, in which descriptions of graphics are shared online. HiVE – a high-level descriptive language – captures the way in which graphics are built and configured. HiVE statements and commentary can be micro-blogged. Compliant software clients can interpret HiVE, provide user-interfaces to allow users to explore data through graphical rec...
