Development of CBR-BDI Agents: A Tourist Guide Application

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 3155))

Abstract

In this paper we present an agent-based application of a wireless tourist guide that combines the Beliefs-Desires-Intentions approach with learning capabilities of Case Base Reasoning techniques. This application shows how to develop adaptive agents with a goal driven design and a decision process built on a CBR architecture. The resulting agent architecture has been validated by real users who have used the tourist guide application, on a mobile device, and can be generalized for the development of other personalized services.
