摘要
多智能体系统 ( multi- agent system,简称 MAS)具有复杂的动态结构及行为特征 .传统的体系结构描述语言 ( architecture description language,简称 ADL)在语义和表达能力两方面难以满足要求 .提出了一种基于智能体的体系结构描述语言 A- ADL( agent- based- ADL) .该语言采用计算 /联接智能体替代部件 /连接器作为体系结构单元 ,基于体系结构原语、规则及多视图 ,解决了多智能体系统的动态性和语义问题 .通过实例详细阐述了 A- ADL的动态体系结构建模机制 ,并通过相关研究的比较证明了 A- ADL对于 MAS的适用性 .
Multi-Agent systems (MAS) generally exhibit complicated dynamic structure and b ehavior characteristics. If traditional architecture description languages (ADLs ) are applied, semantic gap and expression problems are difficult to overcome. A n agent-based architecture description language A-ADL is proposed in this pape r, which takes computation/connector agent as architectural elements instead of component/connector in traditional ADL. By introducing architectural primitives, rule-based agent description and multi-view mechanism, it can be effectively used to model complicated dynamic architectures and overcome semantic gap mentio ned above. This paper also describes dynamic architecture modeling method of A- ADL in detail with an example, and justifies the suitability of A-ADL for MAS b y comparing A-ADL with several other traditional ADLs.
