代理中介的电子机构属于一个新的和有前途的领域，其中一组代理之间的相互作用是通过一组明确的规范进行调节。然而，这种开放式代理系统的当前实现大多使用对代理的行为的约束，从而严重限制了代理的自主性。为了增加代理人的自主权并可能提高整个系统的效率，需要更灵活的规范执行。然而，由于规范大量使用模糊不清的概念，缺乏操作意义（不表达规范应如何执行），翻译规范以供使用这种灵活的执行机制可能很困难。在本文中，我们提出了一个扩展到电子机构，允许灵活的执行规范，和方式，以帮助克服翻译抽象规范的困难。
Agent-mediated electronic institutions belong to a new and promising field where interactions between a group of agents are regulated by means of a set of explicit norms. Current implementations of such open-agent systems are, however, mostly using constraints on the behaviour of the agents, thereby severely limiting the autonomy of the agents. To increase the autonomy of agents and possibly boost the efficiency of the overall system, a more flexible norm enforcement is required. However, as norms make extensive use of vague and ambiguous concepts and lack operational meaning (not expressing how the norm should be enforced), translating norms for usage with such a flexible enforcement mechanism might be difficult. In this paper we propose an extension to electronic institutions to allow for a flexible enforcement of norms, and manners to help overcome the difficulties of translating abstract norms.
