Software tool for agent-based distributed data mining

We describe multi-agent technology and software tool for the joint engineering, implementation, deployment and possibly use of applied multi-agent distributed data mining and distributed decision making systems. The core problem of distributed data mining and decision making technology does not concerns particular data mining techniques, because the respective library of classes can be extended when necessary. Instead of this, its core problem is development of an infrastructure and protocols supporting coherent collaborative work of distributed software components (agents) responsible for data mining and decision making. We focus on architecture of multiagent distributed data mining and decision making system, on its design technology, software tool and on the protocols of software tool agents' interaction, mainly, in distributed data mining and decision making processes. The presented software tool is implemented and validated on the basis of several case studies from data fusion scope.
