An Initial Response to the OAS'03 Challenge Problem

[摘要] We present our initial response to the OAS '03 Challenge Problem. The Challenge Problem proposes an agent-assisted travel scenario, and asks what the role of ontologies would be to support the agent's activity. We discuss a belief-desire-intention (BDI) approach to the problem using our Nuin agent platform, and illustrate various ways in which ontology reasoning supports BDI-oriented problem solving and communications by the agents in the system.
