Abstract

Interoperability can be defined as the ability to exchange and share information among two or more systems or components. For such exchange and share to be possible, these systems and components must be capable to access, process and interpret this information. There are several questions related to interoperability among open multiagent systems (MAS), some of these related to specification of MAS using heterogeneous organizational modes. This project is within the context scope of the Interop project, funded by FAPESP. During it`s development, this research will study the feasibility of adoption of artifacts in order to deal with interoperability of MAS described according to heterogeneous models.
