| | JNSM CFP: Intelligent Agents for Telecommunications Management (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23) |
 | | In contrast to mobile agents, which concentrate on code mobility and benefit from the global acceptance of Java technology, intelligent agents originate from the Distributed Artificial Intelligence (DAI) community, where the key attributes of an agent are autonomy, negotiation capabilities, and interoperability. |
 | | Key issues for the application of intelligent agents to specific application domains, such as telecommunications management, are the definition of appropriate agent communication languages (ACLs) and ontologies. |
 | | Besides emerging intelligent agent standards, such as the Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agents (FIPA) specifications, the application of multi-agent systems in the management domain has a long history. |
