Abstract :
This paper addresses an important issue in the implementation of knowledge-based techniques in the intelligent vehicle community. Driver associate is a real time driver aiding system formulated in a multi-agent coalition platform. Agents are defined as C++ classes organized in a hierarchical data structure. Inference engines located in the main file are triggered by passing parameters. The multi-agent environment requires a coalition manager, also implemented as a class object, that can coordinate agents to form optimal solutions. The challenge here is to design a driver associate that can improve the safety of the future intelligent vehicle. The design methodology is proposed in this paper.
