Abstract :
We first present a type of Petri net, the augmented time generalized colored Petri net (ATGCPN). Then we model the process of accomplishing a task using the augmented contract net protocol (ACNP) in our multiagent system as an ATGCPN. With the ATGCPN, we analyse some characteristics of the multiagent computing.
