| 多智能体系统(multi-agent system,简称MAS)具有复杂的动态结构及行为特征.传统的体系 结构描述语言(architecture description language,简称ADL)在语义和表达能力两方面难 以满足要求.提出了一种基于智能体的体系结构描述语言A-ADL(agent-based-ADL).该语 言采用计算/联接智能体替代部件/连接器作为体系结构单元,基于体系结构原语、规则及多 视图,解决了多智能体系统的动态性和语义问题.通过实例详细阐述了A-ADL的动态体系结构 建模机制, |

| Abstract: |
| Multi-Agent systems (MAS) generally exhibit complicated dynamic structure and b ehavior characteristics. If traditional architecture description languages (ADLs ) are applied, semantic gap and expression problems are difficult to overcome. A n agent-based architecture description language A-ADL is proposed in this pape r, which takes computation/connector agent as architectural elements instead of component/connector in traditional ADL. By introducing architectural primitives, rule-based agent description and multi-view mechanism, it can be effectively used to model complicated dynamic architectures and overcome semantic gap mentio ned above. This paper also describes dynamic architecture modeling method of A- ADL in detail with an example, and justifies the suitability of A-ADL for MAS b y comparing A-ADL with several other traditional ADLs. |
