چکیده

From News to Chat, electronic discussion groups are widely acknowledged as a popular medium of communication. Unlike electronic mail which is rather easy to handle since it operates on a one-to-one bases, to keep up with forum discussions is extremely demanding. Participation in forums requires a constant effort of selection and attention from the user which goes beyond the limits of cognitive capacities. In this paper, we suggest to cope with this problem by introducing communication-oriented modeling (COM) as an alternative to agent-oriented modeling (AOM). Our approach to COM is based on theoretical foundations inspired by socionics and sociology.

Coordinating Active Agents in Open Systems

The eld of agent oriented programming (AOP) recently emerged from its object{ oriented roots. Whereas the beneets of object{orientation nowadays are widely used in AOP, modeling of communication in multi{agent systems (MAS) still lacks adequate abstractions. Currently considered approaches like RM{ODP, CORBA, or languages like Java introduce object{orientation to inter{agent communication while...

Modeling Lateral Communication in Holonic Multi Agent Systems

Agents, in a multi agent system, communicate with each other through the process of exchanging messages which is called dialogue. Multi agent organization is generally used to optimize agents’ communications. Holonic organization demonstrates a self-similar recursive and hierarchical structure in which each holon may include some other holons. In a holonic system, lateral communication occurs b...
