Multiagents based modelling in graphical user interfaces
Dorian Gorgan · 1997
A graphical environment that experiments visual programming techniques based on autonomous agents is presented. The model consists of active entities called agents, and passive entities such as behaviours, trajectories, actions, and conditions. The agents have rule based behaviours defined as spatial and temporal volutions. A consistent set of agent structures, actions and rule types is highlighted to support a general oriented visual programming. The model concerns on the notion of trajectory and topological information used in a cooperative evolution to control applications based on real time, processes synchronization, data flow diagrams, graphical animation, metaphorical user interface, artificial intelligence techniques.
