DISTRIBUTED MULTIAGENT SYSTEMS FOR VERTICALLY INTEGRATED COMPANIES: ARCHITECTURE AND INTERFACES

Consideration is given to the distributed multi-agent systems for computer-aided processing of the formalized messages and requests to distant databases in a heterogeneous data-processing environment. The proposed system architecture is oriented to satisfying the requirement on the multiagent system independence of the data protection systems and the data-communication facilities and securing data delivery in case of using the public networks. The methodology of system design for vertically integrated companies based on a high-level communicational interfaces (Guaranteed data delivery facilities and Remote file packets protocol) which provide a uniform procedure of data-network interaction is considered.
