Programming multi-agent systems in AgentSpeak using Jason /

Jason is an Open Source interpreter for an extended version of AgentSpeak - a logic-based agent-oriented programming language - written in Java"! It enables users to build complex multi-agent systems that are capable of operating in environments previously considered too unpredictable for compu...
