Abstract

Basic conceptions are defined, which includes states of MAS’s capability, environment states, effects, events and basic actions, et al. An approach to construct strategy of operation process (SOP), for MAS to complete its missions, is advanced, which is based on the constraint of MAS’s capability states and evolving of environment state. With static influence graph and dynamic Bayesian Networks, actions, event and effects are related and the processes of evolving of them are built, on which an approach to optimize strategy of SOP is presented.
