Large Scale Agent Mediated Autonomic Service Orchestration in Grid Environment

The service oriented architecture (SOA) as an IT architecture is gaining acceptance in the manufacturing industry. Services orchestration across enterprises is increasingly becoming a competitive factor for many industrial application domains. The need for autonomic service orchestration motivates our research in infusing autonomous agents in dynamic grid service composition. This paper proposes an extension of the fuzzy cognitive goal autonomous multi-agent system (Leong et al., 2005) to enable large scale agent mediated autonomic service orchestration in dynamic Grid environment.
