  <description><![CDATA[The concept of an agent is ubiquitous in Computer Science. We employ it to talk about and to model a wide range of things from physical robots, to modules in client-server architectures, to human, to Internet-based information retrieval programs, to intelligent personal assistants. During the past decade a "software agents" paradigm has
emerged which views agents as autonomous, cooperating processes which use rich agent communication languages to exchange information and knowledge and to coo...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Both conversation specifications and policies are required to facilitate effective agent communication. Specifications provide the order in which speech acts can occur in a meaningful conversation, whereas policies restrict the specifications that can be used in a certain conversation based on the sender, receiver, messages exchanged thus far, content, and other context. We propose that positive/negative permissions and obligations be used to model conversation specifications and policies. We...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[We describe our preliminary work in modeling conversation specifications and policies as positive/negative permissions and obligations. Our model is generic as it is independent of the syntax and semantics of the communication language and can be used for different agent communication languages. We also discuss the relationship between conversation specifications and policies and show how both are used by an agent in order to decide what communicative act to perform next within a conversation...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Internet agents are expected to accomplish their tasks despite heterogeneity; agents with different designs, skills, and domain knowledge must interact successfully through knowledge and information exchange and effective coordination. An Agent Communication Language (ACL) is a powerful framework for interacting agents in open and dynamic environments. Although an ACL provides a framework for knowledge sharing between agents, it is inadequate on its own for coordination between agents. Conver...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Knowledge Query and Manipulation Language (KQML) is a language of typed messages, usually understood as speech acts, encoded as ASCII strings (in a LISP-like syntax), that are transported over TCP/IP connections and aimed at knowledge and information exchange between software systems that are viewed as Virtual Knowledge Bases. KQML, which first appeared almost 10 years ago, has come to define the concept of an ACL, and in the process the ACL has become the centerpiece of a large category of a...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[The term ‘agent’ has always been a moving target, implying different properties to the designers of different systems. Consequently, agent-based systems have widely varying architectures and are frequently incompatible. The use of development environments or base platforms is an effective solution to this problem, allowing developers to focus on internal aspects of their systems while embedding them in a common framework. This situation has been improved considerably by the development of...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Jackal is a Java-based tool for communicating with the KQML agent communication language. Some features that make it extremely valuable to agent development are its conversation management facilities, flexible, blackboard style interface and ease of integration. Jackal has been developed in support of an investigation of the use of agents in enterprisewide integration of planning and execution for manufacturing.]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Despite the substantial number of multi-agent systems
that use an Agent Communication Language (ACL), the dust
has not settled yet over the landscape of ACLs. The semantic
specification issues have monopolized the debate at
the expense of other important pragmatic issues that must
be adequately resolved in the immediate future if ACLs
are going to support the development of robust agent systems.
After introducing some of the basic concepts relating
to Agent Communication Languages, we...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Interoperability is a central issue for both the mobile agents community and the wider agents community. Unfortunately, the interoperability concerns are different between the two communities. As a result, inter-agent communication is an issue that has been addressed in a limited manner by the mobile agents community. Agent communication languages (ACLs) have been developed as tools with the capacity to integrate disparate sources of information and support interoperability, but have achieved...]]></description>
