Integrating Knowledge-Level Agents in the (Semantic) Web: An Agent-based Open Service Architecture
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present an Agent-based Open Service Architecture (OSA) which integrates geographically distributed agents in the Web. Agents can be realized with traditional AI techniques, but they also provide a set of Web Services to the outside world which constitute their capabilities. The architecture extends the Web with a facilitator level providing agents’ specific support. Moreover it provides primitives for Web Services invocation and inter-agent communication based on Agent Communication Languages. We present the design of the architecture and an implementation which extends a common Web Server based on Apache/Tomcat plat-

NOWHERE - An Open Service Architecture to support Agents and Services within the Semantic Web
Extended Abstract Agents are one of the main building blocks of the World Wide Web under the Semantic Web activity [1]. The Web is evolving toward an open, service-oriented architecture, which is a software infrastructure that makes an open set of information services available to users and agents. The role of agents is to retrieve, execute and compose available services providing more sophisti...
متن کاملA Context-aware Architecture for Mental Model Sharing through Semantic Movement in Intelligent Agents
Recent studies in multi-agent systems are paying increasingly more attention to the paradigm of designing intelligent agents with human inspired concepts. One of the main cognitive concepts driving the core of many recent approaches in multi agent systems is shared mental models. In this paper, we propose an architecture for sharing mental models based on a new concept called semantic movement....
متن کاملA Reasoning Infrastructure to Support Cooperation of Intelligent Agents on the Semantic Grid
Can a knowledge level layer be individuated in the Semantic Grid infrastructure? Is it possible to design a knowledge level ACL which enable agents to cooperate in a geographically distributed Semantic Grid despite failures or malfunctions of nodes? This paper tries to address the above Semantic Grid challenges presenting an Agent-based Open Service Architecture which integrates geographically ...
متن کاملKnowledge Sifter: Agent-Based Ontology-Driven Search over Heterogeneous Databases Using Semantic Web Services
Knowledge Sifter is a scaleable agent-based system that supports access to heterogeneous information sources such as the Web, open-source repositories, XML-databases and the emerging Semantic Web. User query specification is supported by a user agent that accesses multiple ontologies using an integrated conceptual model expressed in the Web Ontology Language (OWL). A collection of cooperating a...
متن کاملFault tolerant knowledge level inter-agent communication in open Multi-Agent Systems
Agent Communication Languages (ACLs) have been developed to provide a way for agents to communicate with each other supporting cooperation in Multi-Agent Systems. The importance of ACLs is especially highlighted in open systems (such as the Internet) where heterogeneous agents must be able to communicate and exchange knowledge with one another despite differences in hardware platforms, operatin...
