tailieunhanh - Lecture Multiagent systems - Chapter 11: Applications

Agents have found application in many domains: in this chapter, I will describe some of the most notable. Broadly speaking, applications of agents can be divided into two main groups. Distributed systems: In which agents become processing nodes in a distributed system, the emphasis in such systems is on the 'multi' aspect of multiagent systems. Personal software assistants: In which agents play the role of proactive assistants to users working with some application. The emphasis here is on Individual' agents. | LECTURE 11: Applications An Introduction to MultiAgent Systems Application Areas Agents are usefully applied in domains where autonomous action is required. Intelligent agents are usefully applied in domains where flexible autonomous action is required. This is not an unusual requirement! Agent technology gives us a way to build systems that mainstream software engineering regards as hard! Main application areas: distributed/concurrent systems networks human-computer interfaces 11- Domain 1: Distributed Systems In this area, the idea of an agent is seen as a natural metaphor, and a development of the idea of concurrent object programming. Example domains: air traffic control (Sydney airport) business process management power systems management distributed sensing factory process control 11- Domain 2: Networks There is currently a lot of interest in mobile agents, that can move themselves around a network (., the Internet) operating . | LECTURE 11: Applications An Introduction to MultiAgent Systems Application Areas Agents are usefully applied in domains where autonomous action is required.
