Abstract :
Planning with Answer Set Programming (ASP) has been described as a valuable approach to express planning problems in a declarative way. However, few publications addressed the modeling of Blackboard system with answer set programming. In this paper, we study the advantages of using an action language and ASP to develop a Blackboard system. We conclude our article by describing our Blackboard system and we show the usefulness of the extended Ack language to control and plan the agents´ actions.
