Comparison of platforms for software agents
(Redirected from Comparison of plattforms for software agents)
There several platforms for software agents or also agent development toolkits, which can facilitate the development of multi-agent systems.[1][2][3] Hereby, software agents are implemented as independent threads which communicate with each other using agent communication languages. Below is a chart intended to capture many of the features that are important to such platforms.
