Abstract
Real-time animation of virtual humans, capable of interacting realistically with others, requires a sophisticated architecture for the integration of different elements. A more flexible architecture for intelligent virtual agents emphasizing on the learning process should be designed to fulfil these requirements. In this paper we present an open and flexible architecture, IVAL, that has being designed to accomplish the requested necessities. IVAL is based on the Web Service principles, as well as on the fundaments of the Open Agent Architecture (OAA) and it intends to accomplish determined objectives through the cooperation with other agents that inhabit the environment. One of the main purposes is to introduce a realistic learning process based on the interaction with the environment as similar as possible to humans been doing. This paper also presents a set of languages, based on the standard Extensible Markup Language (XML), that have been designed to get a more appropriate representation of all the required information elements.
