Abstract

For biological agents, the perceived world does not consist of other agents only. Also software agents can have a shared world model they operate on. In this paper we discuss information systems as an important part of software agents' environment and try to identify the corresponding demands, leading us to build an information system for software agents on top of a conventional database. Thus we were able to add "agentified" access to the advantages of current information systems like reliability and speed.
