Abstract
Interoperability among agent platforms is important for making full use of each platform’s problem-solving capabilities. It is also crucial to the upper layer interoperations (re-organization, negotiation, etc.). Static interoperation as enabled by pre-configuration has been proposed and implemented, although no satisfactory mechanism for dynamic interoperation is available. We propose a mechanism to facilitate the dynamic interoperation between agents situated in different computers by discovering the underlying agent platforms and using that information to enable and support the interoperation process.
