自治代理之间的知识级合作的多代理系统方法承诺显着的好处,分布式系统工程,如增强的互操作性,可扩展性和可重构性。然而,到目前为止,由于构建多智能体系统的固有困难,这一承诺在很大程度上尚未实现。因此,有一个新兴的愿望,代理开发人员从开发点的解决方案,点的问题,有利于开发方法和工具包,用于构建分布式多代理系统。这一理念导致了ZEUS Agent Building Toolkit的开发,该工具包通过提供Agent级组件库和支持Agent构建过程的环境来促进协作Agent应用程序的快速开发。ZEUS工具包是一个成熟的代理技术与一些新的解决方案的综合,以提供一个集成的协作代理建设环境。
The multiagent systems approach of knowledge- level cooperation between autonomous agents promises significant benefits to distributed systems engineering, such as enhanced interoperability, scalability, and reconfigurability. However, thus far, because of the innate difficulty of constructing multiagent systems, this promise has been largely unrealized. Hence there is an emerging desire among agent developers to move away from developing point solutions to point problems in favor of developing methodologies and toolkits for building distributed multiagent systems. This philosophy led to the development of the ZEUS Agent Building Toolkit, which facilitates the rapid development of collaborative agent applications through the provision of a library of agent- level components and an environment to support the agent-building process. The ZEUS toolkit is a synthesis of established agent technologies with some novel solutions to provide an integrated collaborative agent-building environment.
