Abstract:
This paper introduces a process planning system communication model based on a Multi-agent and all levels of the communication process are in described in detail. The KQML(Knowledge Query and Manipulation Language) language communication is introduced emphatically using the communication performatives of the KQML language to achieve communication between the agents among the process planning.
Key words:    multi-agent system    process planning    KQML    performative
