Foundations and Architectures for Agent Systems

计算机系统现在涉及到日常生活、商业和工业的许多方面。因此，使这些系统更加智能化已成为优先研究的问题。代理系统强调自主性、主动性、反应性和社会性，被广泛认为是实现计算机系统在未来几十年所需能力的关键技术。这项拟议的研究旨在为代理系统做出一些根本性的贡献，这些系统将用于建立未来的计算机系统，这些系统将对日常生活、商业和工业产生比现有系统更深远的积极影响。

Computer systems are now involved in many aspects of everyday life, commerce, and industry. Making these systems more intelligent has thus become a priority research issue. Agents systems, with their emphasis on autonomy, proactiveness, reactivity, and sociability, are widely regarded as a crucial technology for realising the capabilities that computer systems will need over the next few decades. The proposed research aims to make some fundamental contributions to agent systems that will be used to build future computer systems that will have an even more profound positive impact on everyday life, commerce and industry than existing systems.
