Agent-based computing represents an exciting new synthesis both for Artificial Intelligence (AI) and, more generally, Computer Science. It has the potential to significantly impro...
While software is becoming decomposed in more and more finegrained entities, the interactions amongst those become of major importance. While methodologies for building such compon...
From a software engineering perspective, agent systems are a specialization of object-oriented (OO) systems, in which individual objects have their own threads of control and thei...
