Abstract
Networks of multi-agent systems are considered to be heterogeneous if they
include systems with different sets of APIs, running on different virtual
machines. Developing an agent that can operate in this kind of a setting is a
difficult task, because the process requires regeneration of the agent?s
executable code, as well as modifications in the way it communicates with the
environment. With the main goal of providing an effective solution to the
heterogeneous agent mobility problem, a novel agent-oriented programming
language, named ALAS, is proposed. The new language also provides a set of
programming constructs that effectively hide the complexity of the overall
agent development process. The design of the ALAS platform and an experiment
presented in this paper will show that an agent written in ALAS is able to
work in truly heterogeneous networks of multi-agent systems.
