A proposed framework for intelligent systems based on multi-agent conception

A framework based on multi agent conception is proposed, in order to construct a new type of intelligent system. Built under an intelligent human machine interface, it consists of three parts: an intelligent control unit, an agent generator and a library. The intelligent control unit is composed of a visualized task planner, a main control unit and a public information blackboard. Based on an agent shell architecture, the agent generator generates problem solving agents of different size according to a task planning diagram and available problem solving resources (including procedural, descriptive, controlling knowledge, models and static/dynamic data etc.). An agent interaction diagram is also generated to support and test the agent construction procedure. The third part-library, is an integration of bases which manage and store various kinds of resources that the system needs. Designing this framework will provide methods and implementation tools to meet the demand of establishing a new intelligent system in which many agents cooperatively work together to solve complex problems
