摘要
The Open Agent Architecture provides a framework for the construction of distributed software systems, which facilitates the use of cooperative task completion by flexible, dynamic configurations of autonomous agents. OAA provides a general approach to achieving cooperation between agents, organized around the declaration of capabilities by service-providing agents, the construction of goals by users and service-requesting agents, and the role of facilitators in coordinating the satisfaction of these goals, subject to advice and constraints that may accompany them. Other features of OAA include facilities for creating and maintaining shared repositories of data, and the use of triggers to instantiate commitments within and between agents. Additional information about OAA, including papers, descriptions of some OAA-based applications, mailing list information and archives, documentation, and source and binary distributions, can be found at http://www.openagent.com. © 2001 Kluwer Academic Publishers.
