Abstract

Collective operation is a concept of parallel programming in which many processes participate in an operation. Since collective operations are suitable for modeling the coordination of many processes, they can be used to model cooperating agents in a multiagent system. In this paper, we propose an agent oriented programming language that exploits collective operations to abstract the cooperating process of agents. We also present a method for implementing collective operations while maintaining the autonomous computational model of agent. Our experiment shows that our language and cooperation model have many advantages in developing multiagent systems....
