Internet of agents: new paradigm of self-organization for Internet of Things applications

The paper justifies advantages of IoA framework for IoT applications, presents, for the latter, IoA-based formal model illustrated with a number of modern practically important applications. The paper proposes architecture of a software-communication infrastructure constituting a common agent environment that supports agent interactions within common information space thus transforming the agent set into a single whole represented as a networked object. The paper also outlines the set of basic services that the infrastructure has to provide for the agents in various use cases and justifies feasibility of the proposed infrastructure for IoA framework as applied to IoT applications.
