Evolutionary Agent Societies. In Proceedings 4th International Conference on Information Systems Analysis and Synthesis , Orlando, Florida. Reliability is addressed by seeking societies of similar agents, capable of cooperating and intelligently dividing complex tasks into manageable units. Autonomous, mobile agents capable of seeking each other out, based on their inherent problem solving qualities, and adept at forming loose societies, are sought. Scalability is addressed by both providing mobile agents and having masses of agents collaborate with one another in a parallel distributed manner.
Adaptability is addressed by supplying individual agents with the capability to reproduce.
