Abstract :
This paper proposes the MACE - a multi-agent based distributed measurement architecture in CORBA environment used to develop intelligent distributed measurement system for remote control and monitoring of instruments over a network such as the Internet and Ethernet. The architecture is characterized by interoperability, collaboration and intelligence by means of CORBA and multi-agent technologies. The paper describes the architecture and exemplifies it by a common project
