- Cognitive Artifacts for Intelligent Agents in MAS: Exploiting Relevant Information Residing in Environments
Emiliano Lorini / Alessandro Ricci, Michele Piunti
Besides using languages and direct communication, humans adopt various kind of artifacts as effective means to represent and share knowledge, and finally support knowledge-based cooperation in complex work environments. Similarly to the human case, we argue that an analogous concept can be effective also in the context of cognitive multi-agent systems (MAS). Based on previous work on artifact-based environment and A&A conceptual framework, in this paper we investigate the use of a special kind of artifacts, cognitive artifacts, as computational entities |
