Summary

This paper describes an intelligent software agent framework for decision support systems development. An original consumer-based methodology for product penetration strategy selection in real world situations based on this framework was implemented. Intelligent software agent technology is the latest innovation of the distributed artificial intelligence research field and when many manufacturers and system developers adopted it, the need for a consistent, reusable and open framework arose. Agents are simultaneously considered according to two different levels: a functional and a structural level. In the functional level, we have three types of agents: task agents, information agents and interface agents assuming task’s fulfilment through cooperation, information gathering tasks, and mediation between users and artificial agents respectively. In the structural level we have elementary agents based on a generic reusable architecture and complex agents considered as an agent organization that is created dynamically in a recursive way.
