Abstract: A multi agent net has been proposed as a formal description model for autonomous distributed systems(ADS's). In the model, a system is expressed by a set of agent nets, each agent is an extended colored Petri net, and agent nets are linked each other recursively. This paper introduces the multi agent net model and its software environment.
Keywords: multi agent system, autonomous distributed systems, agent net.
