....market place. This chapter reviews the existing technologies that are available to us to build a workable model of our market place. Instead of following the conventional client server model to implement our electronic market place prototype system, we are experimenting with software agents [Gen94] for transporting data back and forth between the market place and its users (i.e. the consumers) The properties and advantages of software agents are explained in the first section. Among the different software agents that are available, our preferred model is the Java based Aglet model ....

....same agent architecture or model to all researchers that claim to use them. The entity might at times be inaccessible to the querying agent, and the entity data indeed accessible to the querying agent is usually incomprehensible to the agent. The standard way to overcome this is to use a wrapper [57], but the size and complexity of the wrapper code for an entity of the kind we study is unacceptable in domains with noticeable time constraints [131] The agent in need of advice may instead feed a pronouncer with a description of a decision situation, including its subjective assessments of ....

....of a multi agent distributed information retrieval system and discusses how well these are met by the FIPA ACL. 1 Introduction Software agents have long been recognised as a promising technology for constructing complex systems as open and distributed communities of loosely coupled modules [9, 11]. A key development in the field of multi agent systems has been the specification of agent communication languages (ACLs) such as KQML [3] and FIPA ACL [7] These languages are intended to provide standard declarative mechanisms for agents to communicate knowledge and make requests of each ....

....in agents and multi agent systems. This has not only been in artificial intelligence but in other areas of computer science such as information retrieval and software engineering. Indeed, there is now a plethora of different labels for agents including autonomous agents [32] software agents [22], intelligent agents [59] interface agents [37] virtual agents [1] information agents [35] mobile agents [57] and so on. The diverse range of applications for which agents are being touted include operating systems interfaces [21] processing satellite imaging data [54] electricity ....

Comparing Environments for Developing Software Agents - Eiter, Mascardi   (1 citation)  (Correct)

....other artificial agents and humans. Thus, situatedness, autonomy, responsiveness, proactiveness and sociality are basic agent attitudes that we take into consideration. Sociality, which is a key feature in MAS, includes among others the following aspects: Agent Communication Language. In [37] software agents are defined as software components that communicate with their peers by exchanging messages in an expressive agent communication language. The salient feature of the language used by agents is its expressiveness. It allows for the exchange of data and logical ....

Wooldridge [95] Agents are. components that communicate with their peers by exchanging messages in an expressive agent communication language. Genesereth and Ketchpel [35]) An agent will set out to do something, and do it; therefore it has the competences for intending to act, for action in an environment and for monitoring and achieving its goals. Watt [90] I consider an agent to be an entity that is capable of acting in its environment to satisfy its ....

....can be encoded as rules within agent programs. Agent Architectures. For an excellent anthology of classic works on agent systems, see [49] There have been numerous proposals for agentization in the literature (e.g. 35, 43, 17] which have been broadly classified by Genesereth and Ketchpel [40] into four categories: in the first category, each agent has an associated transducer that converts all incoming messages and requests into a form that is intelligible to the agent. This is clearly not what happens in IMPACT as noted in [40] the transducer has to anticipate what other agents ....

....been broadly classified by Genesereth and Ketchpel [40] into four categories: in the first category, each agent has an associated transducer that converts all incoming messages and requests into a form that is intelligible to the agent. This is clearly not what happens in IMPACT as noted in [40], the transducer has to anticipate what other agents will send us and translate that something which is clearly difficult to do. The second approach is based on wrappers which inject code into a program to allow it to communicate [40, p.51] The IMPACT architecture provides a language (the ....

Facilitating Message Exchange though Middle Agents - Payne, Paolucci, Singh, Sycara (2002)   (Correct)

....Agent used. For example, Brokers or Facilitators [4] mediate between requesters and providers by querying services whose advertisements match a requester s service query. Resulting messages are then sent from the provider to the requester via the Facilitator. This contrasts with Matchmakers [6, 7, 3]) which do not participate in the agent to agent communication process; but rather match service requests with advertisements, and return these matches to the requesters. The location of services is one of several challenges encountered by agents within a MAS. Once a provider has been located ....

From Object Specification towards Agent Design - Saake, Conrad, Türker (1995)   (2 citations)  (Correct)

....of the object concept to provide a more flexible and semantically richer framework for modelling heterogeneous information systems. Agents can be interpreted as autonomous and intelligent objects, which are equipped with knowledge and reasoning capabilities to satisfy various goals (cf. BG88, GK94] In this section we briefly characterize some important requirements for agent modelling. Internal State. Agents have an internal state which includes an internal, imperfect representation of the world. The internal state of an agent reflects the knowledge of that agent at a given time. But, ....

....most cases agents have to cooperate to achieve their goals. Especially in federated information systems, where agents have to interoperate in order to provide a powerful interface for application programs, appropriate structures and protocols for agent communication and cooperation are required [GK94] Because of the fact that agents may change their behaviour and or may even change their signature, there must exist varying communication structures. Agents are assumed to have (incomplete) knowledge about the internal state of other agents and their goals. In order to satisfy a goal, an agent ....

Communicating Agents in Open Multi Agent Systems - Payne, Paolucci, Singh, Sycara (2002)   (2 citations)  (Correct)

....of different agents and coordinate the communication between them, thus acting as Brokers or Facilitators It0, 16] These type of agents are often used within market based systems. Another sub class of Middle Agents are generally known as Matchmakers, Yellow Pages or Directory Agent systems [13, 14, 6, 8]. They only have knowledge about the capabilities of service providers, and do not participate in the agent to agent communication process. Thus, if an agent requires the services of another agent, it can query the middle agent, which then returns a list of agents whose capabilities match the ....

InterpretersList is a list of interpreters, each for any external domain to which the agent is interfaced. The interpretation approach to software integration [9] has been followed. Service is one of the services that have been individuated for the application, as defined in its ontology . Tools for conversation model. The second step of the method describes the conversation model of the MAS. The agent communication language is a subset of KQML[13] ....

....their behavior so as to adapt it to changes in the environment. Thus, the possibility given by LP of viewing programs as data is very important in this setting. This feature is useful also for integrating external heterogeneous software following some wrapping or interpretation approach [9]. Rationality and reactiveness of agents: the declarative and the operational interpretation of logic programs are strictly related to the main characteristics of agents, i.e. rationality and reactiveness. A pure logic program can be viewed as the specification of the rational component of an ....

A Multiagent System for Users to Share Their Web - Experience On Search   (Correct)

....their Web experience. In the proposed framework, the personalized agents perform exchanging of their Web information on supporting group users search activities all on their users behalf. Now a prototype implementation based on the proposed multiagent framework is in progress by using the KQML[3, 4] protocol as the inter agent communication language. The implementation is based on adding the communicating part to our previous implementation[21] of on line Web search support sys tem by using a single personalized agent. As the future work, other types of Web experience that we did not ....
