Study On Communication Mechanism In MAS-Based CSCW Architecture

Since CSCW system was brought forward, more and more people have paid attention to this domain's research. People have a virtual work environment of computer to do cooperative work freely by CSCW system.But realize a perfect system is difficult because of the fact that the CSCW system comes down to knowledge of many subjects and is difficult to build.This paper brings forward a MAS-Based CSCW system after analyzing the current CSCW system. This model uses structure message to control cooperative behaviors by user Agent layer and Global Agent layer. General Agents take charge of those application functions and cooperate each other by user Agent and Global Agent.And communication is the basis for cooperating and negotiating among Agents.Because if there is no communication, the system will be no cooperation and negotiation. So this thesis discussed the method and construction of communication and posed MAS communication architecture based on OAA, and then elaborated its workflow in detail.The research on cooperation and negotiation mechanism of Multi-Agent System in this thesis will create and bring about convenience for devising and developing CSCW system. Lastly, this paper provides the develop way to prototype system with an example— City Emergency Response Center.
