Massive Cyber-Attacks Patterns Implemented with BDI Agents

Abstract

This paper treats the new phenomenon of cyber-war as a new form of human violence between states. The concept of cyber-attack is a particular form of cybernetic war and it is one expensive in terms of cost. We tried to achieve a uniform approach of technological and sociological type using BDI agents and thus making the step to addressing computational sociology of cyberspace. We present two patterns of massive type attacks applicable in cyber space using BDI agents. The approach using BDI agents turned to be flexible and capable to model complex forms of cyber bullying that can occur between two countries in future.
