A FIPA Compliant Goal Delegation Protocol
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents an interaction protocol, built on top of FIPA ACL, allowing an agent to delegate a goal to another agent, in the form of a proposition that the delegating agent intends its delegate to bring about. The proposed protocol addresses the concrete needs of a service that is to be deployed within the AgentCities network, but also helps to highlight some issues that are related to the FIPA ACL itself and its usage to build more complex agent interaction blocks.

A critical discussion about an agent platform based on FIPA specification
Agent-oriented programming is a possible solution to interoperability. In this paper we focus on the proposal of the Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agent (FIPA) and our implementation of an agent platform that is FIPA compliant. The FIPA's reference model seems to be an effective answer to the endeavour of agent standardisation. Nevertheless, FIPA requirements are not clear in some fundame...
متن کاملSupporting FIPA Interoperability for Legacy Multi-agent Systems
A system that conforms to FIPA specifications (standards) is a FIPAcompliant system, and can interoperate with any other heterogeneous systems which are FIPA-compliant also. The conversion of a Multi-Agent System (MAS) into a FIPA-compliant system (i.e. one that adheres to FIPA standards), is important to support interoperability across different MAS. A different approach to conforming a MAS to...
متن کاملJADE – A FIPA-compliant agent framework
JADE is a software framework to develop agent applications in compliance with the FIPA specifications for interoperable intelligent multi-agent systems. The goal is to simplify development while ensuring standard compliance through a comprehensive set of system services and agents. JADE can then be considered an agent middle-ware that implements an Agent Platform and a development framework. It...

This article presents the design, implementation and application of Mobile-C, an IEEE Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agents (FIPA) compliant agent platform for mobile C/C++ agents. IEEE FIPA standards are a set of specifications designed to ensure the interoperation between agents in a heterogeneous network. Mobile-C conforms to the FIPA standards both at agent and platform level. Mobile-C...
متن کاملLEAF: A Toolkit for Developing Coordinated Learning Based MAS
This paper describes LEAF, the “Learning Agent based FIPA-Compliant Community Toolkit”, a toolkit for developing multiagent systems coordinated using utility function assignment, based on Collective Intelligence by Wolpert et al. LEAF agents use machine learning techniques such as reinforcement learning to maximise local utility functions, where local utility functions are assigned to agents su...
