Abstract:
From theoretical and practical viewpoints, the application of intelligent software agents is a topic of major interest. There has been a growing interest not only in new methodologies for development of intelligent software agents, but also the way in which these methodologies can be supported by theories and practice. This book focuses on addressing the theories and practices associated with implementing intelligent software agents.
