Applying Agent-Based Technology to University Knowledge Management
نویسندگان
چکیده
A university knowledge management system is composed by three components: the educational management, the research management, and the institutional management. The high complexity of the whole university knowledge management system, that is also a distributed system, can be handled by using a multi-agent system. Through communication and cooperation the agents are solving different problems specific to knowledge management in a real or virtual university. The agents are associated to the humans involved in all processes (e.g. educational, research, institutional) that are running in a university, such as professors, assistants, students, researchers, technical staff, management staff, administrative staff etc. The paper presents an university knowledge management system based on agents technology. Two case studies are described in detail, one for the university research management, and the other for the educational management. The implementation of the agent-based system was done in ZEUS, a toolkit for multiagent systems development.
