The success of agent-oriented concepts in various application domains, in particular in manufacturing control, creates the need for an agent-oriented analysis, design, and program...
Multi-machine scheduling, that is, the assigment of jobs to machines such that certain performance demands like cost and time effectiveness are fulfilled, is a ubiquitous and comp...
In this paper, a model is proposed for multi-agent probabilistic reasoning in a distributed environment. Unlike other methods, this model is capable of processing input in a truly...
Intelligent agents and active databases have a number of common characteristics, the most important of which is that they both execute actions by firing rules upon events occurring...
This paper presents a logic based language, SAFIN, for developing networked software agents. It integrates agent-oriented programming, KQML and basic mobile techniques to support ...
