This paper brings together two recent contributions to the area of declarative agent-oriented programming, made feasible in practice by the recent introduction of an interpreter for a BDI programming language. The work on Coo-BDI has proposed an approach to plan exchange which applies to BDI agents in general. The other contribution is the introduction of special illocutionary forces for plan exchange between AgentSpeak agents. This has been implemented in Jason, an interpreter for an extended version of that language. This paper shows how the elaborate plan exchange mechanism of Coo-BDI can be used by AgentSpeak agents implemented with Jason. It also discusses an application on PDA-based multi-media presentations in museum visits for which plan exchange is relevant.

Abstract
This paper brings together two recent contributions to the area of declarative agent-oriented programming, made feasible in practice by the recent introduction of an interpreter for a BDI programming language. The work on Coo-BDI has proposed an approach to plan exchange which applies to BDI agents in general. The other contribution is the introduction of special illocutionary forces for plan exchange between AgentSpeak agents. This has been implemented in Jason, an interpreter for an extended version of that language. This paper shows how the elaborate plan exchange mechanism of Coo-BDI can be used by AgentSpeak agents implemented with Jason. It also discusses an application on PDA-based multi-media presentations in museum visits for which plan exchange is relevant.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
