....when constraints are relaxed) 3 1. 1 Blackboards Actors MASs proposed in the literature rely on two approaches to achieve communication between agents: 1) the blackboard model introduced in the Hearsay II system [Erman et al. 1980] and used in several recent systems [Hayes Roth et al. 1992; Bussmann and Demazeau 1994; Charpillet and Boyer 1994] and 2) the actor model initially proposed by [Hewitt 1977] which developed into various concurrent languages [Agha 1986; Yonezawa et al. 1986; Yokote and Tokoro 1987; Ferber and Briot 1988] In the blackboard approach, knowledge sources use available information ....

....Many researchers have suggested that neither a completely reactive nor a completely cognitive approach is suitable for building complete solutions for real life applications. Hybrid models, such as TouringMachines [Ferguson 1992] InteRRaP [Mller and Pischel 1994] and the model presented in [Bussmann and Demazeau 1994], have been proposed to combine the advantages of both reactive and cognitive models. In these models, agents are decomposed in a set of modules which can in turn be of a reactive or cognitive nature. However, the problem with such models is that of controlling the interactions between these ....

.... used to efficiently determine an appropriate action in any situation (Schoppers, 1987) Another proposal for building reactive planners involves the use of reactive action packages (Firby, 1987) Other hybrid architectures are described in (Downs and Reichgelt, 1991; Aylett and Eustace, 1994; Bussmann and Demazeau, 1994). 4 Agent Languages By an agent language, we mean a system that allows one to program hardware or software computer systems in terms of some of the concepts developed by agent theorists. At the very least, we expect such a language to include some structure corresponding to an agent. However, we ....

We propose in this paper a model of an agent integrating both reactive and cognitive aspects. This agent architecture is supported by a generic parallel blackboard model which supplies a powerful architecture to implement agents. In the first part, we give an insight to some previous work that ....

....is exposed in the last section, in a real time scenario of roadway traffic. We conclude by some perspectives about the use of parallel and distributed blackboards to build agent systems and about the integration of such blackboard agents in a multi agent integration platform. 2 Previous work In [2], S. Bussman and Y. Demazeau have shown that especially in complex domains neither purely reactive nor purely cognitive approaches suffice to meet the requirements imposed by the environment.They extract the main requirements to integrate reactive and cognitive aspects in a same agent, and propose ....
