Vision
To produce technology standards that apply to the development of
agents and agent-based systems
To reuse other standards, as appropriate
To migrate existing standards to IEEE
Major underlying goals:
To be marketplace driven - What does the market want?
To be implementor driven - What do vendors and actual
developers need/want?
