A Semantic Approach towards Multi-Agent Choreography in Clinical Decision Support

Abstract

Abstract.A distributed environment, medical decision-making process is becoming increasingly complex, and it usually needs more medical roles to complete the diagnosis and treatment of one complex disease. However, these medical roles typically distribute in different work environments, so the organization and coordination of these medical roles are of great importance and urgency in this situation. In this paper, a semantic approach towards multi-agent choreography mechanism is proposed to make the situation better. In this mechanism, multi-agents from distributed environments are used to simulate different medical roles, medical rules described by using the coordination meta-model based on OWL(Web Ontology Language) are designed for choreographer to organize and coordinate these agents behaviors. Taking advantage of medical rules, the choreographer could make multi-agents communicate and cooperate efficiently with each other and prompt them to do the final decision-making together.
