Abstract

Agents are autonomous and flexible systems situated in an environment where agents act accordingly for achieving their objectives. Composed of several interacting agents, multi-agent systems offer promising engineering solutions for developing robust and scalable systems. A review of agents, multi-agent systems and ontologies is presented. A multi-agent architecture addressing virtual collaboration in a distributed environment is proposed and its potential for communication support, resource interoperation and knowledge integration is investigated. The proposed architecture has the potential of optimizing the flow of information in communication networks.
