Abstract

Since the emergence of the Internet of Things (IoT), the Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) technology has proved to be a valid paradigm to facilitate the development of distributed, intelligent applications for heterogeneous sets of IoT devices. However, current MAS lack effective mechanisms to systematically integrate the enormous diversity of IoT devices. In this context, this paper presents the concept of IoT artifact as an integrated interface for the development of MAS based on IoT devices. The IoT artifact strictly follows the A&A (Agents and Artifacts) Meta-Model, but it also considers the programming model of the SPADE multi-agent platform, ensuring both a consistent theoretical framework and a practical approach for real-world applications.
