Abstract

This paper presents an idea of a multi-agent decision support system. Agent-based technology allows for decentralized problem solving and creating complex decision support systems, mixing various processing techniques, such as simulation, reasoning and machine learning and allows for distributed knowledge. Our main contribution is an agent-based architecture for decision support systems which is an agent-based implementation of a labeled deductive system. Such approach allows to decompose an inference algorithm into separate modules and distribute knowledge base into parts. The system is tested on a domain of material choice support for casting.
