Abstract
A software architecture of autonomous agents based on the idea of abstract state machine—ASM is proposed. The architecture establishes links between well-founded notions and recognized mechanisms of multi-agent systems and procedures of their systematic design and implementation as computer-network applications. A pilot version of the related software and its application example are presented shortly.
