MAPFS is a parallel file system integrated with a multiagent system responsible for the information retrieval. One of the fields where the agents can be very useful is precisely in the development of information recovery systems. The usage of a multiagent system implies coordination among the agents that belong to such system. The main goal of the agent cooperation is the interaction among them for achieving a common objective in a distributed system. Thus, a communication framework must be provided. This paper shows the MAPFS cooperation model and its communication framework, emphasizing its relation with the whole system.
