Our
goals
The Technical Committee
on Distributed Intelligent Systems is an international special
interest group of specialists active in the research and
applications of collaborative agent-based systems. Key application
areas include manufacturing and supply chains, and infrastructures
for service, energy, transportation, and emergency management
systems. The core research topics for these applications
include agent architectures, agent intelligence, agent communications,
agent collaboration, agent simulation and optimization,
and agent human-machine interfaces. An important methodology
of distributed intelligent systems is the role-based approach
for collaborative agent design.
We provide a forum for members to participate
in this emerging field and an opportunity for those who
wish to learn about the theory and applications of this
exciting field. Further details about the TC and its goals
are available in the December
2009 issue of the eNewsletter.
