Abstract

This paper deals with an application of multiagent systems to sensor network management. This wireless communication network will be applied to monitor an underground hydrographic network. We first present the ENVSYS project. its origin and its issue. We then recall the concepts of agent and multiagent systems. We sketch a multiagent system´s architecture according to the AE10 method. This multiagent system consists of hybrid agents. We also introduce the ASTRO agent model.
