“…Object-oriented development approach has a lot of advantages, but it also exposes some problems, the most important deficiencies can be summarized as follows:object-oriented technology is not the most appropriate analogue intends to the real world [1][2] [3]. Agent has solved the problem in the development of the software, and it is more close to the real situation of the objective world and the general method of solving the problem.…”

MultiAgent system is designed for distributed environment, and has been proved efficient in the making of clinical decision support. Usually,agents communicate with each other by using messages in a distributed system,hence a well formed and organized message structure might be the key point to get high quality of message transport between different agents.Clinical Document Architecture(CDA),which is a standard for clinical document information exchange ,could convey more standardized clinical information to help physicians make much more accurate clinical decisions.In this paper, a document structure based on CDA is proposed as a message strcture for information exchange between different agents and it is proved flexible and efficient in the clinical information transportation and exchange.Through using the proposed message strcture,agents cooperate with each other much more efficiently ,which could help doctors make much more scientific clinical decisions ,reduce medical errors and then provide higer quality of heathcare.

Although the integration of ontology with AOMs has shown to be beneficial, the ontology development component remains challenging as it requires extensive knowledge of the underlying problem domain.…”

Ontology reuse for multiagent system development through pattern classification

et al. 2018

Summary Ontologies play a crucial role in multiagent systems (MASs) development, especially for domain knowledge modeling, interaction specifications, and behavioral aspect representation. Domain‐specific ontologies can be developed in an ad hoc or systematic manner through the incorporation of ontology development steps on the basis of agent‐oriented methodologies. Developing such ontologies, however, is challenging because of the extensive amounts of knowledge and experience required. Moreover, since many ontologies cater for very specific domains, the question arises of whether some can be reused for faster systems development. This paper attempts to answer this question by proposing an ontology pattern classification scheme to allow the reuse of existing ontology knowledge for MAS development. Specifically, ontology patterns relevant to the design problem at hand are identified through the pattern classification scheme. These patterns are then reused and shared among agent software communities during the system development phase. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is validated using a restaurant‐finder MAS case study. Our findings suggest that utilization of the classified ontology patterns reduces development time and complexity when dealing with domain‐specific applications. The scheme also seems useful for software practitioners, where searching and reusing the patterns can easily be done during the analysis, design, and implementation of MAS development.

The reason for the growth of e-learning that it provides a convenient and efficient learning environment and practical utilities at anytime and anywhere, so that learners and teachers realize their educational activities with less effort, time and money. In recent years utilization of semantic web techniques for knowledge construction and representation in E-learning gained so much attention. This article presents a system for automatically learning knowledge construction and representation in e-learning which is based on the concept map, RDF data modeling and ontology languages. These concepts can show the mentioned knowledge better and also they convey the meaning. In the proposed method, DBpedia knowledge base is used for extracting learning concepts, also the concept map is applied for creating a graph of concepts and relations between them and editor tools of ontology like protégé are providing a knowledge base of concept map in the format of OWL. The proposed method is developed for creating knowledge base from existing concepts in fuzzy logic domain. Among the advantages of the constructed knowledge base we can mention the meaningfulness, its sharing and reusability in all the learning systems.
