Abstract

. This article covers three basics of our virtual soccer team AT Humboldt: We describe our development process in the frame of a practical exercise for students. The resulting efficient agent-oriented realization is explained, and we give a theoretical embedding of our planning component based on BDI. 1 Introduction One of the recent fields of Artificial Intelligence is Agent-Oriented Programming (AOP, cf. e.g. [Wooldridge/Jennings, 1994], [Shoham, 1993]). AOP is proposed especially for the programming of autonomous components ("agents") in open heterogeneous systems. The agents (players) in Artificial Soccer [Kitano et al., 1997] must plan and execute actions individually and efficiently resulting in a successful cooperative team behavior. This article covers three basics of our virtual soccer team AT Humboldt: We present a description of our development process in the frame of a practical exercise for students at the Humboldt-University of Berlin. We show how this has lead to an ef...
