  FIPA - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
FIPA was founded as a Swiss not-for-profit organization in 1996 with the ambitious goal of defining a full set of standards for both implementing systems within which agents could execute (agent platforms) and specifying how agents themselves should communicate and interact.
The most widely adopted of the FIPA standards is their Agent Communication Language FIPA-ACL.
The name FIPA is somewhat of a misnomer as the "Agents" with which the body is concerned exist solely in software (and hence have no physical aspect).

 Welcome to the Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agents
FIPA, the standards organization for agents and multi-agent systems was officially accepted by the IEEE as its eleventh standards committee on 8 June 2005.
FIPA was originally formed as a Swiss based organization in 1996 to produce software standards specifications for heterogeneous and interacting agents and agent based systems.
FIPA specifications represent a collection of standards which are intended to promote the interoperation of heterogeneous agents and the services that they can represent.

 [No title]
The specification consists of a set of message types and the description of their pragmatics, that is the effects on the mental attitudes of the sender and receiver agents.
FIPA envisages a variety of different agent platforms from single processes containing lightweight agent threads, to fully distributed agent platforms built around proprietary or open middleware standards.
FIPA is concerned only with how communication is carried out between agents who are native to the platform; and agents outside the platform, or agent who dynamically register with a platform.

 Peaceful Societies
The Fipa worldview is based on beliefs in contrasting, polar opposites—settlers and strangers, villagers and the bush, or the opposite natures of male and female.
It appears as if their belief systems helped foster governments in the pre-colonial Fipa states that were run, on the one hand, by hierarchies of men, and on the other by magistracies in the villages administered by women.
Social advancement among the Fipa is contingent on peacemaking and social skills, symbolized by the twice-daily meals and frequent beer-drinking sessions which men and women participate in together.

FIPA is quickly becoming a standard of choice among a small number of standards.
FIPA is concerned only with how communication is carried out between agents who are native to the AP and agents outside the AP or agents who dynamically register with an AP.
FIPA is a young organization, and there is still much to be done in both research of multi-agent systems and their standardization.

 Fipa Families — www.greenwood.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
The opportunities of the Catholic Church complemented and competed with Fipa processes of social and biological reproduction, and Catholicism became part of the fabric of Fipa society because of, and despite, its resonance with Fipa culture.
At the heart of both Fipa and missionary concerns were the processes of socialization (social reproduction) and biological reproduction, processes carried out within the context of the family.
Yet, at the heart of both Fipa and missionary concerns for cultural and religious perpetuation lay the processes of socialization (social reproduction) and biological reproduction--both processes carried out within the context of the family.

FIPA's ACL is stronger in this regard than the W3C's new standard XML which allows the form of a document to be well defined but does not allow the semantic content of the document to be understood by computer applications.
FIPA has set itself a significant challenge in specifying a consortia standard where system inter-operation is at such a knowledge rich level.

Among other projects, over the past year the FIPA has been attempting to be recognized in the FTAA negotiations as the official voice of the parliamentarians of the Americas, who will eventually have to either ratify the FTAA agreement or justify it to their voters.
The FIPA has asked for official recognition in order to begin a dialogue with negotiators to educate parliamentarians of the hemisphere on the state of the talks and to share with negotiators parliamentarians' issues and concerns.
The FIPA's third annual plenary assembly was, from the Canadian delegation's view, a well-run success, allowing parliamentarians to discuss with their counterparts throughout the hemisphere issues of interest to Canada and Canadians, notably terrorism, FTAA negotiations and economic integration.

Abstract This is an application for assignment of the URN NID "FIPA" to be used for identification of standard components published by the Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agents standards body [1] in the area of Agent technology.
The Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agents (FIPA) publishes technical specifications, schemas, diagrams and other documentation related to the area of Agent technology FIPA wishes to create and manage globally unique, persistent, location-independent identifiers for these resources.
The closest to the requirements identified by FIPA were the proposed VOC [3] and TAG [2] schemes: - In particular TAG could be used in conjunction with the domain name "fipa.org" which FIPA has registered to generate unique identifiers.
