In this paper we propose the general software engineering approach of transforming an agent into an Agent Computational Environment (ACE) composed of: 1) the "main'' agent program; 2) a number of Event-Action modules for Complex Event Processing, including generation of complex actions; 3) a number of external contexts that the agent is able to access in order to gather information. In our view an ACE is composed of heterogeneous elements: therefore, we do not make assumptions about how the various components are defined, except that they are based upon Computational Logic. In order to show a concrete instance of ACE, we discuss an experiment based upon the DALI agent-oriented programming language and Answer Set Programming (ASP).

Abstract

In this paper we propose the general software engineering approach of transforming an agent into an Agent Computational Environment (ACE) composed of: 1) the "main'' agent program; 2) a number of Event-Action modules for Complex Event Processing, including generation of complex actions; 3) a number of external contexts that the agent is able to access in order to gather information. In our view an ACE is composed of heterogeneous elements: therefore, we do not make assumptions about how the various components are defined, except that they are based upon Computational Logic. In order to show a concrete instance of ACE, we discuss an experiment based upon the DALI agent-oriented programming language and Answer Set Programming (ASP).
