ABSTRACT

The use of agent technology for building complex systems is increasing, and there are compelling reasons to use this technology. Benfield [1] showed a productivity gain of over 300% using a BDI (Belief Desire Intention) agent approach, while other work calculated that a very modest plan and goal structure provides well over a million ways to achieve a given goal, providing enormous flexibility in a modular manner.
