Lots of people use the FIPA agent communication language (http://fipa.org/) with Jess. See Jade for an example (http://openjade.sourceforge.net/). The FIPA ACL, like KQML, provides a message oriented framework for agent communication and coordination. It's at a higher level of abstraction than blackboards and "tuple space" systems like Linda, so it might be more that you want or need. However, the FIPA standards are pretty mature, have a large international community that continues to extend and refine them, and have some good open source implementations to support them (in addition to Jade, see FIPA-OS (http://fipa-os.sourceforge.net/) and for small mobile devices, LEAP (http://leap.crm-paris.com/)). -------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, send the words 'unsubscribe jess-users [EMAIL PROTECTED]' in the BODY of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED], NOT to the list (use your own address!)
