Abstract
Intelligent software agents are a key technology needed to achieve the capabilities required of future military information systems. The Information Technology Division of the Air Force Research Laboratory’s (AFRL) Information Directorate has partnered with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to develop a broad-spectrum of agent technologies through a collection of research programs. These programs, funded by the Information Technology Office (ITO) at DARPA, are collectively researching nearly all areas of software agents technology: from fundamental modeling of agent-based systems to the application of mature agents technology in military information systems. This article presents the scope of these programs and their state of progress.
