Abstract:
In the past few years, the explosive growth of the Internet has allowed the construction of "virtual" systems containing hundreds or thousands of individual, relatively inexpensive computers. The agent paradigm is well-suited for this environment because it is based on distributed autonomous computation. Although the definition of a software agent varies widely, some common features are present in most definitions of agents. Agents should be autonomous, operating independently of their creator(s). Agents should have the ability to move freely about the Internet. Agents should be able to adapt readily to new information and changes in their environment. Finally, agents should be able to communicate at a high level, in order to facilitate coordination and cooperation
