A multi-agent system to support location based group decision making in mobile teams
This paper describes an agent-based approach for developing a location-based asynchronous group decision-support system for
mobile teams. The approach maximises the use of reusable service components (GSCmas — generic service component for
multi-agent systems) as the main interaction mechanism between agents to allow flexible support of a new group-decision
process. The paper describes the architecture of a GSCmas and provides details of how the GSCmas is integrated within a decision
support system. Finally a system (mPower) based on the proposed approach is introduced and applied to a location-based group
decision problem
Adding Extensible Synchronization Capabilities to the Agent Model of a FIPA-Compliant Agent Platform
JADE a FIPA2000 compliant agent development environment
JADE (Java Agent Development Framework) is a software environment to build agent systems for the management of networked information resources in compliance with the FIPA2000 specifications for interoperable intelligent multi-agent systems. The goal of JADE is to simplify development while ensuring standard compliance through a comprehensive set of system services and agents. JADE offers an agent runtime system on which implement efficient FIPA 2000 compliant multi-agent systems and supports their development through the availability of a predefined programmable agent model and of a set of management and testing tools. This paper describes the main features of the JADE system and introduces some of the most important projects based on JADE software
