Agent-based Ubiquitous Systems: 9 Lessons Learnt
نویسنده
چکیده
The recent emergence of agent prototyping environments for developing Java agents (Aglets, JATlite, JACK, Agent Factory) and the availability of the J2ME (Java 2Micro Edition) on light devices (PDAs and cellular phones) provides the ability for strong agenthood to be delivered in the mobile and ubiquitous sector. This is an experience paper that discusses the lessons learnt in the construction of agent-based ubiquitous sytems. Within this paper we consider four such systems namely Ad-me, WAY, Gulliver’s Genie, and Easishop. They all have been developed at UCD. The common denominator for all prototypes is the use of Lightweight BDI agents and the intelligent pre-caching of content.

Lessons Learnt from Deployment of a Social Simulation Tool to the Semantic Grid
Abstract. In this paper we discuss the lessons learnt from the deployment of FEARLUS, an agent-based model of land-use change, into the Grid Context. We outline the requirements for improving the scientific rigour of agent-based modeling and discuss the solutions adopted. This leads to a description of the infrastructure for managing distributed experiments across the grid and support for seman...
متن کاملAn Intelligent Fuzzy Agent Approach for Realising Ambient Intelligence in Intelligent Inhabited Environments
--In this paper we describe a novel life long learning approach for intelligent agents that are embedded in intelligent environments. The agents aim to realise the vision of Ambient Intelligence in Intelligent Inhabited Environments (IIE) by providing ‘ubiquitous computing intelligence in the environment supporting the activities of the user. An unsupervised, data-driven, fuzzy, technique is pr...
متن کاملGoing Back to School: Putting a Pervasive Environment into the Real World
This paper presents the lessons learnt from the development of a ubiquitous computing environment for use within the real world. Such systems are currently purpose built demonstrators, often within research labs. This paper is based on the development of a storytelling environment for use within schools. This migration – from the lab to the school – required the redevelopment of the platform, a...
متن کاملTowards a Generic Multiagent Model for Decision Support: Two Case Studies
This paper describes how agent and knowledge technology can be used to build advanced software systems that support operational decisionmaking in complex domains. In particular, we present an abstract architecture and design guidelines for agent-based decision support systems, illustrate its application to two real-world domains road traffic and bus fleet management and discuss the lessons lear...
متن کاملQualité des modèles : retour d'expériences
The increasing complexity of information systems (ubiquitous systems, open enterprises, etc.) calls for the introduction of always new modeling languages. However, the development of new domain-specific languages makes the question about their quality, as well as the quality of the produced models, an important issue for the modeling of information systems. This article deals with this issue by...
