Danish title: Autonome agenter
Language:  English    ECTS-creditpoints:  5   
Type:  , open university
Class schedule:   F2-A og kun ulige år
Exam schedule:   No exam
Scope and form:  Lectures. Problem sessions. One or two written assignments.
Evaluation:  Approval of coursework/reports
Examination:  13-scale
Prerequisites:  02282
Preferred prerequisites:  02220
Aim:  To provide insight into the concepts, methods, and logical theories used in the field of autonomous agents.
Contents:  Autonomous agents are systems which are constructed to work in a partly specified environment, where unexpected events may occur. Autonomous agents (intelligent agents, multi agents) may be physically materialized robots or pure abstract software systems, e.g. on the Internet. The course deals with theories and methods used for the construction of autonomous agent software, in particular logical methods for representation of intentions and plans, for conducting reasoning concerning plans and intentions of other agents. You are expected to take an interest in software construction, mathematical logic and theoretical computer science.
