v13 v14 26 26 27 27 1 Define system components: 28 28 29 The system's architecture is inspired from the standards provided by FIPA (Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agents) from which are inspired many of the current agents platforms. 30 We present below the components proposed for our system and a brief description: 29 31 30 32 * MAIN CONTROLLER - manages the other controllers + load balancing … … 45 47 * ACTUATORS - apply changes to the environment 46 48 * CHANNELS - allow agents to communicate 49 50 As during this semester activity we wanted to keep focused over the parallelism issues and communication models, the current implementation does not offer support for load balancing through controllers. 51 The main controller will be responsible for adding agents to the platform and for establishing virtual communication channels. It also relays percepts from environment to sensors and commands from actuators to environment. 52 On the other hand, the agent contains sensors that will continuously monitor the environment, actuators that will apply changes to the environment and also channels that will allow the communication between different agents. 53 54 55 47 56 48 57 2.
