“…Labrou & Finin [15] semantics of speech acts shed more light on the locutionary, illocutionary and perlocutionary acts. These [15] described as three performative conditions for agent communication which are represented as preconditions, postconditions and completion:…”

“…Following the [15] semantics of speech acts, three performative conditions for agent communication of goals were established for the Pre-assessment System in preconditions, postconditions and completion. The completion Condition becomes the transition state [3] in which the agents of the Pre-assessment System can establish the eventual goal that can only be achieved at some time after any current conversation has finished.…”

Abstract!Student modelling and agent classified rules learning as applied in the development of the intelligent Preassessment System has been presented in [10], [11]. In this paper, we now demystify the theory behind the development of the pre-assessment system followed by some computational experimentation and graph visualisation of the agent classified rules learning algorithm in the estimation and prediction of classified rules. In addition, we present some preliminary results of the pre-assessment system evaluation. From the results, it is gathered that the system has performed according to its design specification.

“…KQML is a language for programs which use to communicate attitudes about information, such as querying, stating, believing, requiring, achieving, subscribing, and offering. KQML is indifferent to the format of the information itself, thus KQML expressions will often contain sub-expressions in other socalled content languages [10].…”

Abstract-Coordination in multi-agent system is very essential, in order to perform complex tasks and lead MAS towards its goal. Also, the member agents of multi-agent system should be autonomous as well as collaborative to accomplish the complex task for which multi-agent system is designed specifically. Contract-Net Protocol (CNP) is one of the coordination mechanisms which is used by multi-agent systems which prefer coordination through interaction protocols. In order to overcome the limitations of conventional CNP, this paper proposes a modification in conventional CNP called updated-CNP. Updated-CNP is an effort towards updating of a CNP in terms of its limitations of modifiability and communication overhead. The limitation of the modification of tasks, if the task requirements change at any instance, corresponding to tasks which are allocated to contractor agents by manager agents is possible in our updated-CNP version, which was not possible in the case of conventional-CNP, as it has to be restarted in the case of task modification. This in turn will be reducing the communication overhead of CNP, which is time taken by various agents using CNP to pass messages to each other. For the illustration of the updated CNP, we have used a sound predator-prey case study.

“…They are designed to facilitate collaboration process by providing agent communication mechanism since communication play a fundamental role in collaboration [30]. Formal semantics for KQML have been proposed to associate a meaning to a message [31]. The semantics are captured by feasibility conditions and a rational effect.…”

Abstract:In this paper, we present a framework supporting reliable and trustworthy service-oriented workspace sharing environments. To this end, we propose a communication model to facilitate a complex level of interactions among workspace participants. To implement a communication model, we adopted a frame-based approach, in which each frame has slots to be filled. Slots in a frame are analyzed and filled using the semantic information provided from service participants. In addition, we provide a trust model for predicting behaviors of service providers. Our trust model ensures reliability by indicating the extent to which a service is reliable. To estimate risks and the degree of service satisfaction, we employ historical user ratings. In addition, we evaluated a case from the design and manufacturing domain. We conclude that our proposed approach will contribute to realizing trustworthy workspace sharing in a service oriented environment.
