ABSTRACT:
Each of a plurality of agents includes a self-information management section for managing information associated with the self-agent, an information exchanging section for exchanging the information associated with the self-agent and pieces of information associated with the remaining agents, a problem solving information selecting section for selecting information associated with a problem solving operation of the self-agent from the pieces of information, associated with the remaining agents, which is output from the information exchanging section, and a problem solving information management section for managing the information managed by the self-information management section and the information selected by the problem solving information selecting section. Each agent exchanges information associated with itself and information associated with the remaining agents so that each agent can use pieces of management information associated with the remaining agents which are required to select cooperative agents required to solve a problem held by each agent. Therefore, the communication amount between the respective agents in selection of cooperative agents can be reduced. In addition, concentration of load on a specific agent can be prevented, and hence the influence of a defective agent on the remaining agents can be reduced.
