....layer one or more specialized behaviours, a communication layer decentralized communication protocol and an automata layer planning system. The OSI network model was the foundation of many layered agent architectures, described in one application as Object Distributed Processing (ODP) agents [3]. The agents are organised as societies within the presentation and application layers of the OSI model. GRATE [23] is a layered agent architecture for strong, cooperating agents; it features a domain level system, a cooperation layer, and a control layer. These are sensory, beliefs, reasoning, ....

....for example one that simply determines the appropriate action for a given stimulus or situation. This may mean the weak agent has only one plan. An example of this type of system is described in [11] Sensors and effectors are added when weak and strong agents interact with coexisting applications [3] [21] such as databases. The Active Object pattern has been used to implement actors [16] so the Active Object pattern components of the Layered Agent patterns are enough to constitute an actor, a common software module. An actor is comparable to a weak agent that does not work cooperatively and ....
