Research on agent communication languages has typically taken the speech acts paradigm as its starting point. Despite their manifest attractions, speech-act models of communicatio...
This paper examines the issue of developing semantics for agent communication languages. In particular, it considers the problem of giving a verifiable semantics for such language...
Abstract. In open and heterogeneous environments offered by the Internet, where agents are designed by different vendors, the development of standards for agent communication nee...
This paper presents a multi-agent framework for distributed web-based face recognition using fuzzy logic based result fusion mechanism. The model is designed in JADE framework and...
In multi -agent systems based on softbots, communication architectures have significant influences on system performance as interaction and cooperation of softbots are carried out...
Ontologies play a key role in agent communication and the emerging Semantic Web. Axioms are an important component of ontologies to describe the relationships among the concepts. ...
Conversations involving three or more agents often occur in multi-agent systems, for example in brokering and auction protocols typically used in e-commerce. For developing agents ...
In this paper we define the concept of conversation policies: declarative specifications that govern communications between software agents using an agent communication language. ...
Abstract. In this paper, we study the operational semantics of agent communication languages.We develop a basic multi-agent programming language for systems of concurrently operati...
