Proceedings of the fourth international joint conference on Autonomous agents and multiagent systems, 2005
Software comprehension (understanding software structure and behavior) is essential for developing, maintaining, and improving software. This is particularly true of agent-based systems, in which the actions of autonomous agents are affected by numerous factors, such as events in a dynamic environment, local uncertain beliefs, and intentions of other ...

For a new technology, such as that offered by intelligent agents, to be successful and widely accepted, it is necessary for systems, based on that technology, to be capable of maintaining security and consistency of operation when integrated into the existing infrastructure of an organisation. This paper explores some of the security issues relating to

Proceedings of the 32nd Annual Hawaii International Conference on Systems Sciences. 1999. HICSS-32. Abstracts and CD-ROM of Full Papers, 1999
The goal of this minitrack is to focus on technologies and issues of particular relevance towards supporting systems, or communities of agents, rather than focusing on individual agents' functionalities.In this introductory paper, we divide these issues into three broad categories and discuss some of the research directions and opportunities for each ...

CHI '97 extended abstracts on Human factors in computing systems looking to the future - CHI '97, 1997
"Agents" and "Agent technology" have become the new buzzwords in computer software. Much of this 'buzz' is pure hype similar to the AI hype of the 80's. The software agents tutorial is intended to provide the attendee an overview of the software and user interface technologies being applied to autonomous software modules known as "Agents".

It is by now a cliche that there is no one, universally accepted, definition of intelligent agent technology, but a number of loosely related techniques. Yet there are certain themes that appear common to agent-based systems, and, correspondingly, certain problems that must be addressed and overcome by all agent system builders.

This chapter provides an overview of the rapidly evolving area of software agents and presents the basic aspects of applying the agent technology to virtual enterprises (VE). As the field of software agents can appear chaotic, this chapter briefly introduces the key issues rather than present an in-depth analysis and critique of the field.

Intelligent Agent Software for Medicine
2002An important trend for the future of health technology will be the increasing use of intelligent agent software for medical applications. As the complexity of situations faced by both patients and health care providers grows, conventional interfaces that rely on users to manually transfer data and manually perform each problem-solving step, won& ...

Competing Software Agents Support Human Agents
1999A community of interacting software agents can support an activity of human agents. We describe an experiment based on an existing information server showing how software agents compete for the attention of the user with the intention to support her in an information-rich task through providing her some useful comment.

In recent years the field of multi-agent systems (MAS) research has become mature. It has become apparent that the use of the MAS paradigm facilitates the modularization of complex systems in autonomous subsystems (implemented as agents) and their interactions. However, most systems that are implemented have either a very strict central control or have
