ANALYSIS OF THE KQML MODEL IN MULTI-AGENT INTERACTION

Abstract: Our analysis of the KQML(Knowledge Query and Manipulation Language) model yielded some conclusions on the knowledge level of communication in agent-oriented program. First, the agent state and transition model were given for analyzing the necessary conditions for interaction with the synchronal and asynchronous KQML model respectively. Second, we analyzed the deadlock and starvation problems in the KQML communication, and gave the solution. At last, the advantages and disadvantages of the synchronal and asynchronous KQML model were listed respectively, and the choosing principle was given.

Key words: multi-agent, KQML, communication
