Designing Agent Behavior with the Extensible Agent Behavior Specification Language XABSL
نویسندگان
چکیده
Specific behavior description languages prove to be suitable replacements to native programming language like C++ when the number and complexity of behavior patterns of an agent increases. The XML based Extensible Agent Behavior Specification Language (XABSL) also simplifies the process of specifying complex behaviors and supports the design of both very reactive and long term oriented behaviors. XABSL uses hierarchies of behavior modules called options that contain state machines for decision making. In this paper we introduce the architecture behind XABSL, the formalization of that architecture in XML and the software library XabslEngine that runs the formalized behavior on an agent platform. The GermanTeam [9] employed XABSL in the RoboCup Sony Four Legged League competitions in Fukuoka.

Formal Behavior Specification of Multi - Robot Systems Using Hierarchical State Machines in XABSL ∗
This paper presents the latest developments of the Extensible Agent Behavior Specification Language (XABSL), a modular and scalable tool for engineering complex multiagent behavior. It is based on hierarchical finite state machines. By the new extensions the development of cooperative multi agent behavior is supported through language elements which allow to conveniently specify how the state m...
متن کاملDiploma Thesis: XABSL - A Behavior Engineering System for Autonomous Agents
In the area of agent systems, as throughout in computer science, formal methods are applied to specify complex systems, to ensure certain properties of a system, or to generally simplify the development of solutions. In traditional symbolic artificial intelligence, logic and planning theories are usually used for modelling autonomous agents. But these approaches turned out to be not applicable ...
