Integrating a MAS and a Pandemonium: the open-source framework AKIRA

The open-source framework AKIRA integrates Multiagent and Pandemonium elements. We describe the main components of the framework, showing that the hybrid nature of the Agents, having symbolic and connectionist features, permits to model many functionalities such as implicit communication and coordination. Categories and Subject Descriptors I.2.11 [Artificial Intelligence]: Distributed Artificial Intelligence – intelligent agents, multiagent systems General Terms Algorithms, Design. Keywords Open-Source, Multiagent Systems, Pandemonium
