Abstract

Smart Vehicle Environment (SVE) is an important application of the idea of smart spaces. This paper presents Smart Vehicle Multi-Agent System (SVMAS) to achieve the goal of SVE and put forwards a commutation model for SVMAS based on SmartOSEK COM [1] to support data exchange. The paper also presents an approach to encapsulate the message to transport by CAN bus, and bring forward a simulator model for SVMAS. Finally the paper gives an example of the communication model which implements a dialogue between two agents and analyzes the performance. The contribution of our work is threefold. First, we adopt Knowledge Query and Manipulation Language (KQML) to describe the communication in vehicles. Second, we develop SmartOSEK COM to implement communication in vehicles. Third, we define the ACLcan protocol to transform the message from SmartOSEK COM to CAN frame.
