Abstract :
The paper presents an architecture of MAS called Parliamentary Architecture. It employs the concepts of management role and councilman role to perform management tasks and to speak for the agent community. The mechanism of electing a public servant role can significantly enhance the capability of self-organization. In order to achieve interoperability of a legacy system, the architecture allows for two types of communication languages: global communicative language and local communicative language. It briefly introduces a case to illustrate the architecture
