Abstract

This document gives an overview of a multi-agent system formed by a team of gold miners to compete in the Multi-Agent Programming Contest 2007 (the “gold miners” scenario). One of the main objectives has been to test and improve Jason , the interpreter for an agent programming language used to implement the MAS. Jason [2,4] is an agent platform based on an extension of an agent-oriented programming language called AgentSpeak(L) [6]. The language is inspired by the BDI architecture [7], hence based on notions such as beliefs, goals, plans, intentions, etc.
