Abstract :
To achieve cooperative problem solving for use in providing human activity surrogates and supporters, various agents have been designed and developed using many agent platforms. Generally, realizing cooperation and construction remain as difficult problems confronting agent organizations using different agents running on a heterogeneous agent platform, in contrast to similar agents running on a homogeneous platform. To overcome that problem, we propose a systematic method to construct an agent organization with different agents on a heterogeneous agent platform. As described herein, we propose a design and implementation of our proposed method. Moreover, we underscore the effectiveness of our method using experimentation.
