Abstract

The main aim of this paper is to present a language for the description of systems of reactive agents situated in an environment. This language for Multi-Agent Situated Systems (MASS) has been inspired by a previously introduced Reaction-Diffusion Machine (RDM). It will be shown that it can describe heterogeneous systems of reactive agents, that is agents with different capabilities through an action model based on reaction-diffusion metaphor. Moreover we show how the model has been applied to the location of suitable sites for extra-urban shopping centres.
