The Software Agents group of the MIT Media Laboratory
investigates computer systems to which one can delegate tasks. Software
agents differ from conventional software in that they
are long-lived, semi-autonomous, proactive, and adaptive. The group develops
techniques and builds prototype agent systems that can be tested.
