5.0 out of 5 stars
The most important book for understanding distributed AI, September 13, 2001
This review is from: Foundations of Distributed Artificial Intelligence (Sixth Generation Computer Technologies) (Hardcover)
This book is the best source for obtaining knowledge about Distributed AI and Intelligent Agents. In particular I will recommend the chapters about coordination techniques and negotiation in multi-agent systems, as well as the thorough introduction (with a lot of good references!).
Chapters in this book covers about half of the curriculum in the "Distributed AI and Intelligent Agents" course at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology.
Note: students* find this book rather tough to read!

4.0 out of 5 stars
This book is an excellent formal discussion of DAI., August 10, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Foundations of Distributed Artificial Intelligence (Sixth Generation Computer Technologies) (Hardcover)
This book could serve as a text book for an class in agent technology. In particular, the formal description of
communication theory in chapter 3, "Logical Foundations of Distributed Artificial Intelligence" is a must read for any
serious student of the field. This text is not for the average reader, but is invaluable to anyone who intends to pursue
serious work in the field of DAI.
