Agent Team Coordination in the Mobile Agent Network

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 3681))

Abstract

The paper deals with coordination of an agent team with mobile agents. A formal model based on the Mobile Agent Network is proposed. It elaborates a shared plan through the process that allows team formation according to tasks complexity and characteristics of a distributed environment where they should be performed. A case study describing the multi-agent system with mobile and intelligent agents for software management is included.
