The paper focuses on two particular aspects of using a set of current standards for building a Multi-agent system: analysis and evaluation of certain aspects of the current specification standards provided by FIPA (Foundation of Intelligent Physical Agents) when implementing Multi-agent systems and bridging the gap between the specification and getting a multi-agent system to work. The work reported here is based on one of the developments of a Multi-agent architecture to test certain features of a standards specification. This testing has resulted in determining certain limitations and advantages of using the FIPA standards. The application used for deployment is an audio video entertainment broadcasting (AVEB) system. The development and testing are part of an EU project called - FACTS (acts AC317)

Abstract
The paper focuses on two particular aspects of using a set of current standards for building a Multi-agent system: analysis and evaluation of certain aspects of the current specification standards provided by FIPA (Foundation of Intelligent Physical Agents) when implementing Multi-agent systems and bridging the gap between the specification and getting a multi-agent system to work. The work reported here is based on one of the developments of a Multi-agent architecture to test certain features of a standards specification. This testing has resulted in determining certain limitations and advantages of using the FIPA standards. The application used for deployment is an audio video entertainment broadcasting (AVEB) system. The development and testing are part of an EU project called - FACTS (acts AC317)I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
