An Architecture for Modeling Internet-Based Collaborative Agent Systems

Abstract. This paper describes an architecture for modeling cooperating systems of communicating agents. The authors’ goal is not that of providing a framework to implement multi-agents systems (there are tools—such as CORBA, Java and DCOM—that do an excellent job on that), but rather to provide an architectural metaphor upon which collaborative multi-agent systems could be modeled. The approach is based on requirements defined with a practical view of the communicational and resource-oriented nature of distributed collaborative multi-agent systems.
