Resumen
- In this paper we introduce our future lines of investigation on the field of Intelligent Agents, focusing on analysing why agents which were well defined according to the guidelines of Agent Oriented Software Engineering, do not show the expected behaviour when they are introduced on a real environment, causing the system to collapse. When addressing to agents malfunctions we will use a metaphor in which agents are considered as patients waiting to be diagnosed. Problems agents show would be equivalent to diseases patients suffer from, and the diagnostic process in agents will also be compared to the procedure followed by physicians when they need to heal patients. Therefore we introduce the concepts of SithGent and SithGent Diagnose, to refer to, sick agents and its diagnostic process.
