Agents have the possibility of acting in the environment and influencing its
changes, which particularly include a change of the number of resources in indi-
vidual nodes. It is connected with the activity of the agent

that manages a
given node.

The agents of types

, which are able to relocate between the nodes
while getting to a given node, are part of this environment, and while relocating
in the environment, they make changes to it.
•
Agents, acting in the system as a result of observation of changes taking place in
the environment and the behaviour of other agents, may be autonomous from these
agents and make independent decisions concerning their behaviour in the system.
Summing up, the operation of the agent systemwe presented is based on the function-
ality of the agent previously described as the capability to observe changes caused
in the environment by other agents.
