The optimization of the efficient and flexible calculation process of complex three-dimensional coupled field problems, calculated by software agents, during run time is the goal of this project. Previous work shows, that the use of multiple software agents within a multi agent system using specialized algorithms of numerical field calculation such as the finite element method or boundary element method provide the efficient and flexible calculation. Therefore, the simulation is statically split on classes of problems like the included physics, its domains or available resources. The order of the separation is based on the strength of the expected coupling between the partial problems. This represents the usual approach to computations on distributed resources. The calculation of the partial problems as well as considering related couplings are done decentralized within the software agent system considering available computing resources, the capabilities of the calculation agent and their workload. A validation of the splitting - and thus also the coupling hierarchy is possible during runtime based on information, such as the convergence behaviour or the current state of partial calculations. Due to non-linear coupling between the partial problems, and due to the nondeterministic behaviour of every distributed cluster, a dynamic coupling hierarchy is numerically beneficial for the convergence of an iterative distributed calculation approach. Based on the existing agent system a dynamic consideration of the coupling is possible by an active coordination based on intelligent and learned decisions. Accordingly, the implementation of a learning system using a knowledge base for storable parameters of a coupled systems. This also includes the distributed, decentralized architecture where knowledge is not generated centrally, but on different units available only temporarily. Taken recommendations from the knowledge base into account is done within the numerical iterative solution procedure by adapting the calculation process. The final evaluation of the achieved results completes this project. It is done with special attention to the achieved optimization of coupled systems calculation calculated with decentralized and autonomously acting agents. An additional point is the comparability and gain achieved by the learning system.

优化软件代理计算复杂三维耦合场问题的高效、灵活的计算过程，是本项目的目标。前人的工作表明，在一个多智能体系统中使用多个软件智能体，使用有限单元法或边界单元法等专门的数值计算算法，可以提供高效和灵活的计算。因此，模拟是按问题类别静态划分的，如所包含的物理、其领域或可用资源。分离的顺序基于部分问题之间预期耦合的强度。这代表了在分布式资源上进行计算的通常方法。考虑可用的计算资源、计算代理的能力和它们的工作量，在软件代理系统内分散地完成部分问题的计算以及考虑相关耦合。在运行时期间，基于诸如收敛行为或部分计算的当前状态的信息，可以对拆分以及耦合层次进行验证。由于局部问题之间的非线性耦合，以及由于每个分布式集群的不确定行为，动态耦合层级结构有利于迭代分布式计算方法的收敛。在现有智能体系统的基础上，通过基于智能和学习决策的主动协调，可以动态地考虑耦合。相应地，使用用于耦合系统的可存储参数的知识库来实现学习系统。这也包括分布式、分散化的架构，在这种架构中，知识不是集中产生的，而是关于暂时可用的不同单位。在数值迭代求解过程中，通过调整计算过程，将知识库的建议考虑在内。对取得的成果进行了最终评估，完成了该项目。它特别注意了用分散的和自主作用的代理计算的耦合系统计算的实现的优化。另外一点是学习系统实现的可比性和收益。
