Abstract
Abstract This paper proposes an architecture for cooperative problem solving utilizing features from both knowledge-based systems technology and intelligent agents technology. By redefining knowledge-based systems as individual autonomous agents with well-defined capabilities, tremendous flexibility can be achieved. Complex problem solvers can be assembled from individual agents. These problem solvers would have capabilities that far exceed the sum of the capabilities of the individual agents. By thinking of the agents in terms of their advertised capabilities regardless of their physical location, this approach enables the use of geographically dispersed agents to cooperatively solve complex problems.
