Abstract

In this paper, a complex task decomposition mechanism and the formal definition of atomic task and the complex task were proposed. The operation mechanism and the characteristics of MAS were firstly studied. Then, a hierarchical task decomposition mechanism is proposed according to the requirements of complex task decomposition in MAS. Finally, the formal definition of atomic task and the complex task based on DAG (Directed Acyclic Graph) and TAEMS (Task Analysis, Environment Modeling and Simulation) in MAS are described.
