Multi-Agent Systems for Active, Dynamic Activity Areas

The removal of currently existing deficits in the area of information logistics in the health care domain can significantly contribute to the improvement of quality of the care for patients, the reduction of costs, and the improved decision making process in the areas of diagnosis and therapy. IT-applications that are based on agent technology are especially suited for providing solutions to the mentioned problems. In this report current workings of the German National Science Foundation project ASAinlog are presented. The concept of active, dynamic activity areas for the analysis and modelling of parts and typical properties of the application domain health care will be introduced. Furthermore, the implementation of activity areas as open and heterogeneous multi-agent systems will be described. Since the research workings are currently in progress, this paper describes an attempt to solve the previously mentioned problems.     «
