Towards Norm Enforcer Agents

Abstract

The great majority of works on norm implementation are aimed at enforcing a set of stable norms whose violation can be perfectly observed. However, this assumption is not true in open systems in which norms should evolve for dealing with unforeseen situations. As a solution to this need, we propose to develop norm enforcer agents endowed with capabilities for acquiring norms dynamically and enforcing them in uncertain environments. Specifically, a Normative BDI architecture has been extended in this paper.
