“…The authors of [18] explore how much the most common agent-oriented methodologies are also oriented to the development of services, comparing different agent-oriented methodologies under the point of view of the development of services. Integration of services is also discussed in [19], but rather presents available solutions in a more technological point of view. Agents have being widely studied in the way of creating compositions and orchestrations of services that can be understood as a simplification of services in a single one [20].…”

Abstract. Service-oriented Multi-Agent Systems (SoMAS) is an approach to combine the fundamental characteristics of service-oriented and multi-agent methods into a new platform for industrial automation. Several research works already targeted the connection of these technologies, presenting different perspectives in how and why to join them. This research focuses on available efforts and solutions in the area of SoMAS and explains the idea behind the service-oriented agents in industrial automation. A SoMAS system is mainly composed by shared resources in form of services and their providing/requesting agents. The paper also discusses the required engineering aspects of these systems, from the internal anatomy to the interaction patterns. Parameters of flexibility, reconfiguration, autonomy and reduced development efforts were considered and they should be the trademark of SoMAS. Aiming to illustrate the proposed approach, an example of service-oriented automation agents is given.

“…Agent-interoperability via Web Services has been explored, e.g., JADE WSIG (Greenwood, 2005), but its application to SCs is still hampered due to a lack of standardization, e.g., by FIFA (Greenwood et al, 2007).…”

“…Several works have proposed different mechanisms for integrating agents and web services, as surveyed in [12]. The existing solutions provide mappings between addressing and messaging schemes in web services and agent systems, and are implemented using a gateway that publishes web service descriptions into FIPA's directory facilitator and vice-versa.…”

Abstract-Online services are no longer isolated. The release of public APIs and technologies such as web hooks are allowing users and developers to access their information easily. Intelligent agents could use this information to provide a better user experience across services, connecting services with smart automatic behaviours or actions. However, agent platforms are not prepared to easily add external sources such as web services, which hinders the usage of agents in the so-called Evented or Live Web. As a solution, this paper introduces an event-based architecture for agent systems, in accordance with the new tendencies in web programming. In particular, it is focused on personal agents that interact with several web services. With this architecture, called MAIA, connecting to new web services does not involve any modification in the platform.
