摘要
Adopting three kinds of speech acts: request, promise, and inform, this paper analyses the interaction among agents in a kind of multi-agent systems with requirements /services cooperation style (MAS_(r-s)). The paper gives the objective model the theoretic satisfaction conditions of three kinds of speech acts in MAS_(r-s)The formal definition of MAS(r-s) has been presented. To evaluate concrete implementation architecture and mechanism of the variant MAS_(r-s), including client/server computing architecture and mechanism, a spectrum of MAS_(r-s) has been proposed, which captures direct request/passive service mechanism, direct request/active service mechanism, indirect request/active service mechanism, and peer-to-peer request/service mechanism. The spectrum shows a thread to improve traditional client/server computing.
