Agents and classifiers a transaction logic approach
Manuel Filipe Santos, José Neves, Orlando Belo · 2002
Presents a transaction logic (I/sub R/) formal specification of a distributed architecture for learning classifier systems (LCS) based on a blackboard as a shared database and a set of agents, an architecture that brings parallelism to the LCS functionalities and caters for the distribution of classifiers and associate processes-the DICE system. /spl Ifr//sub R/ captures the behaviour of the system in terms of state changes due to elementary updates embedded in the agent's transactions. The blackboard is viewed as an active database system and the agents as a transaction bases; that is, sets of active rules and transactions.
