Abstract
The ADN project constitutes a generic tool for the analysis and development of distributed intelligent agents. The introduction presents the impetus driving ADN as well as a brief history of the project. Next, the parallel between cognitive psychology and the knowledge modeling architecture are laid open. A brief description of ADN’s functionalities is also presented.
Keywords
- Intelligent Agent
- Knowledge Modeling
- Performance Support System
- Hierarchy Abstraction
- Hierarchical Task Analysis
These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
