What is it about?

Real-time (RT) computing and multi-agent systems (MAS) have established their positions, but do they actually fit together? This paper examines if there is any hope of bringing RT into MAS context and if both concepts can exist in the same project.

Why is it important?

This paper discusses the integration of two paradigms to meet soft real-time constraints within a distributed middleware based on both MAS and RT specifications. From a technological point of view of this integration, the findings show that this integration is possible. It demonstrates that results for non-immense multi-agent applications are acceptable in that they exhibit a nearly linear scalability of the platform in the range considered.
