Each agent is an independent thread. These agents commu-
nicate by sending messages according to an asynchronous
protocol. Any agent can request the creation of another
agent or decide to leave the system. The respective activa-
tion or destruction messages are sent to the administrator.
General architecture
The generic agent model includes all of the communication
features but no particular data regarding the agent's abili-
ties, the representation of outside tasks or the representation
of the abilities of other agents of the system. Aside from the
communication functions, the agent is therefore an empty
structure.
Agent model
There are no design tools, however, there is an interface
which makes it possible to preserve a record of the system's
operation.
Design tools
Test
No test.
Availability
Not available.

Description of the multi-agent platform
The platform is comprised of two elements: an agent structure equipped with
means of communication and an independent supervisor known as an administrator.
This administrator serves as the connection between the various actors of the systems.
