Abstract
In this paper, we present the model and simulator of a multi-agent system (MAS) for temporally rich domains. The theoretical foundations of the model include a knowledge representation scheme based on an original modification of Petri nets, called Petri nets with time tokens (PNTTs), as well as temporal reasoning based on the extension of Allen's temporal logic. The proposed MAS, called TeMAS, has a hierarchical structure, consisting of different levels, where each level contains clusters of agents. A paradigm of hierarchically organized blackboards is used for the communication among agents, clusters, as well as levels. We describe an object-oriented implementation of a program simulator of TeMAS and give an example of the use of the simulator for interpretation of events in a dynamic scene.
