Besides, agents understand and can execute some actions. In distributed
system, an agent can realize its intention through affecting other agent's actions.
Affecting other agents' behaviors is realized by a kind of specific class named
communication action behavior. The communication action is taken from one
agent to other agents. To execute a communication action, the agent needs the
mechanism to send codes action message. So, communication action initiator and
acceptor are message's sender and receiver.
The message of the FIPA definition is gathered by a core sets. It means a
correspondence action, but this correspondence action tries the general balance
definition, express ability and simplicity, and the relation with the understand of
agent developer. The correspondence action that the message type defined to be
carries out. The one who combines appropriate realm knowledge, correspond by
letter the language and can make accept makes sure the news contents of
meaning.
About the mental state and from the sender' view to accepter's mental state
generating the expectation is expressed by precondition. However, because the
sender and receiver are independent, the expectation result can not be guaranteed.
If two agents want to interaction through communication, they need a
common point for message transmit. The message transmission service attribute
discussion is taken by FIPA committee 1- agent management to take charge of.

The contribution of agent technology to complex system action and
interaction process manifests on the high interaction. The ACL in FIPA is based
on this view. For example, the communication action described by the topic is
used to inform the facts, request complex action and negotiate protocol. The
mechanism mentioned can not compete with the basic network protocol for
example TCP/IP, OSI seven protocols and can not compare with them. They are
also not substitute of CORBA. JAVA RMI and Unix RPC. However, their
functions are the same with some of the above examples. At least, the ACL
message is transmitted by this mechanism.
