Abstract

This article focuses on the design of smart-system of distance learning (DL) for people with impaired vision (PIV) based on multi-agent approach. There are considered the most common multi-agent platforms and based on them practical applications. Particular attention is paid to Java Agent Development Framework platform (JADE), there were analyzed the advantages and disadvantages. There were considered main problems of DL for people with impaired vision to provide high-quality engineering education in the shared laboratories (SL) with modern equipment. There was offered an integrated solution to this problem by the use of cognitive, ontological, statistical, intellectual and multi-agent approaches. Were developed the structure and the algorithm of functioning of the smart-system of DL for PIV using different agents.
