Distributed Collaboration in the Context of the Semantic Web
Jakob Beetz, van Jp Jos Leeuwen, de B Bauke Vries · TU/e Research Portal · 2006
In this paper we are proposing a Multi Agent System (MAS) framework for the facilitation of distributed collaboration in the AEC/FM domain. We are showing how the stack of technologies developed in the Semantic Web community can be put to use for the specific requirements of the building industry. Based on our earlier findings and developments in the area of logic based knowledge representations for the Design and Construction industry, we are outlining how these can form the semantic foundations of internal agent representations and their interconnection using speech acts.
