REAL-TIME MULTI-AGENT BDI ARCHITECTURE WITH AGENT MIGRATION AND METHODS THEREOF

摘要

Systems and methods for controlling and implementing a concurrent multi-agent BDI architecture to control complex systems in real time and exhibiting high parallelism. The system comprises BDI agent modules storing a BDI state of the whole system, an emotional and an internal the BDI agent modules and a world model. Each BDI agent module concurrently evaluates the activation of its potential goals and prioritizes its intentions. Each BDI agent module may be hardware-implemented, software-implemented or hybrid-domain-implemented, depending on whether they are executed on application-specific hardware, general purpose hardware or a combination thereof. The domain of each BDI agent might be migrated in real time during operation, optimizing resources and improving performance.
