1. What's an Agent, Anyway? A Sociological Case Study
- foner.www.media.mit.edu
- The term `agent' has been picked up, widely appropriated, and in many cases misappropriated, by technical publications, lay publications, and many researchers in computer science. I examine some of the appropriations and misappropriations, talk about their reasons and implications, and delve into a case study of an agent that is used to illustratively define what I consider an agent to be, and why many of the current uses of the term are misleading. The agent I consider is Julia, a TinyMUD robot of the Maas-Neotek family, all of whom have been in almost constant use at several sites on the Internet for the last two or three years. I also speak at length about the sociology of such agents, what we might expect to find in the future, and why sociology is such an important aspect to consider when investigating agent-oriented programming. ...

5. Special Session on Multi-Agent Information Systems
- www.cms.livjm.ac.uk
- Multi-Agent Information Systems.
- An agent-based information system may employ information agents that pro-actively search for and combine relevant information on behalf of users or other agents from various sources. ... The development of complex large-scale information systems such as distributed/federated databases, heterogeneous databases and semi-structured databases in the future are most likely to use agent technology in the design and implementation of various aspects of the system.
- Multi-agent systems have been mooted as an important means with which to address the development of large and complex information systems, and provide one such approach to the problem above. Agent technology and multi-agent systems have arisen in an exciting and rapidly changing field during the last ten years, emerging from distributed artificial intelligence. ...
- A key aim of this interdisciplinary special session is to bring together active researchers from the different fields to exchange ideas discuss the many open issues that arise in the design, development and implementation of multi-agent information systems.
- The special session will be concerned with a broad range of issues relating to the design and implementation of agent-based systems. ...

8. Cougaar Agent Architecture
- www.cougaar.org
- Welcome to the Cognitive Agent Architecture (Cougaar) Open Source Project site. ...
- Cougaar is a Java-based architecture for the construction of large-scale distributed agent-based applications. It is a product of two consecutive, multi-year DARPA research programs into large-scale agent systems spanning eight years of effort. The first program conclusively demonstrated the feasibility of using advanced agent-based technology to conduct rapid, large scale, distributed logistics planning and replanning. The second program developed information technologies to enhance the survivability of these distributed agent-based systems operating in extremely chaotic environments. The resultant architecture, Cougaar, provides developers with a framework to implement large-scale distributed agent applications with minimal consideration for the underlying architecture and infrastructure. The Cougaar architecture uses the latest in agent-oriented component-based design and has a long list of powerful features.

Secondly, the agent's competence is necessarily limited to actions it has seen the user perform. ... We present a framework for multi-agent collaboration and discuss results of a working prototype, based on learning agents for electronic mail. ...
