Abstract
BDI (Belief, Desire, Intention) is a mature and commonly adopted architecture for Intelligent Agents. BDI Agents are autonomous entities able to work in teams and react to changing environmental conditions. However, the current computational model adopted by BDI has problems which, amongst other limitations, prevent the development of mobile agents. In this paper, we discuss an architecture, TOMAS (~ansaction Oriented Multi Agent System), that addresses these issues by combining BDI aad the distributed nested transaction paradigms. An algorithm is presented which enable agents in TOMAS to become mobile.Keywords
