A Customizable Coordination Service for Autonomous Agents

Abstract. We address the problem of constructing multiagent systems by coordinating autonomous agents, whose internal designs may not be fully known. We develop a customizable coordination service that (a) takes declarative specifications of the desired interactions, and (b) automatically enacts them. Our approach is based on temporal logic, and has a rigorous semantics and a naturally distributed implementation.
