Application Framework with Abstractions for Protocol and Agent Role
نویسنده
چکیده
In multi-agent systems, agents interact by sending and receiving messages and the actual sequences of message form interaction structures between agents. Protocols and agents organized internally by agent roles support these interaction structures. Description and use of protocols based on agent roles are supported by a simple and expressive application framework.

متن کاملA Verification by Abstraction Framework for organizational Multi-Agent Systems
Software agents and multi-agents systems (MAS from now on) are recognized as both abstractions and effective technologies for modelling and building complex distributed applications. However, they are still difficult to engineer. The reason is that when massive number of autonomous components interact it is very difficult to predict that the emergent organizational structure fits the system goa...

The widespread acceptance of Sun Microsystem’s Java(tm) language provides the essential groundwork upon which an agent based framework can be built. Three such frameworks are IBM Aglets(tm) Workbench, General Magic Odyssey(tm) and Mitsubishi Electric’s Concordia. Each framework promotes a different concept in agent programming. The use of abstractions varies, as well as the actual capabilities ...
