Abstract

This paper presents an intermediation multi-agent system to manage the distributed collaborative design environment like a CoPs. The JADE-based intermediation system (JAIS) uses community enactment mechanism and agent integration mechanism. The community enactment mechanism is the system kernel and follows the specifications of the CoPs reference model. The system kernel supports four agents (moderator, user, expert and newcomer agents) to manage the community, whereas the integration mechanism supports an intermediation agent to interact, coordinate and monitor the activities between agents. JAIS facilitates the team interaction in a collaborative and distributed environment.
