Abstract

Open multi-agent systems need to cope with the characteristicsof the Internet, e.g., dynamic availability of computationalresources, latency, and diversity of services.Large-scale multi-agent systems employed on wide-areadistributed systems are susceptible to both hardware andsoftware failures. This paper describes AgentScape, amulti-agent system support environment, DARX, a frameworkfor providing fault tolerance in large scale agent systems,and a design for the integration of the two.
