Abstract

We investigate the application of a logical model of agency, known as the KGP model, to develop agents for ambient intelligence applications. Using a concrete scenario, we illustrate how the logical formalism employed by a KGP agent allows a person to access the surrounding ambient through the agent in a transparent manner. We evaluate our claims by implementing the resulting interactions in PROSOCS, a prototype multi-agent systems platform that allows KGP agents to be deployed as components of ambient intelligence applications.
