Development of Operation Support Mechanism for Wide-Area Distributed Agent Repositories

In the research field of distributed artificial intelligence, the establishment of a dynamic team organization method of multiagent system has become an important research theme.
Although the existing research was based on the assumption that many agents are present in only one agent repository, this research propose a mechanism to assist the management and operation of the agents based on the assumption that agents are in multiple repositories over wide-area distributed environment.
We appreciate that our research is evaluated as important research in the terms of the operation platform of practical multiagent system.

Award winner's comments:

This research was conducted by our research group: members of Nagoya Institute of Technology and members of Tohoku University.
We will tackle in the further expansion of the proposed mechanism, and we would like to enhance the value of our mechanism as development and operation tool of multiagent system.
