Measuring the Intelligence of Software Agent
Sapna Mahar, Pradeep Kumar Bhatia · 2014
The software engineering refers to the production of quality software and the application of agent oriented paradigm is accepted as beneficial for software engineering because of its exciting features like social ability, autonomy, pro-activity, reactivity, adaptability and intelligence, which are altogether new to the previous paradigms. The objective of this paper is to constitute the attributes associated with intelligence and to set out the measures to evaluate the agent. Intelligence is the ability of an agent to capture and apply the application domain specific knowledge to process and solve the problems. However, the behaviour of agent may change for same input in different cases and thus it is difficult to evaluate the quality of an agent. The study incorporates the calculation of proposed measures on a case study of marketplace agent[19].
