Distributed multi-agent reasoning system

In Artificial Intelligence Distributed Multi-Agent Reasoning System (dMARS) is an architecture and implementation for intelligent software agents developed at the AAII that makes uses of the BDI software model. The design for dMARS was based on a previous version of the same architecture called PRS.

Overview

dMARS is an agent-oriented development and implementation environment for building complex, distributed, time-critical systems.
