| Abstract | Based on Y. Shoham's paradigm, called Agent-Oriented Programming (AOP), multi-agent-systems are presented as a specialization of distributed, Object-Oriented systems.
Equipped with knowledge, general concurrent inference mechanisms dealing with this knowledge, and a declarative agent program, these multi-agent-systems are intended to be a foundation of a new approach uniting advantages of many contributing areas: The precise semantics of Petri nets, the abstraction and encapsulation proposed in Object-Oriented approaches, and the power of logic programming, making it easy to adopt well-known AI-methods.
As an example, an urban traffic information system will be designed which solves path searching problems in a distributed graph.
