Abstract :
This paper discusses implementing multi-agent systems with component software techniques. Studies on how to implement autonomy, adaptability, interaction, and interoperability of agents and multi-agent systems based on CORBA and COM are carried out and presented respectively. The paper elaborates those main features of agents and multi-agent systems that could be obtained naturally by applying component software techniques. It indicates that a CORBA based or COM based development approach is a practical way to develop large scale and complex multi-agent systems running under distributed heterogeneous environments
