A collaborative agent system architecture for cloud-based community care services control and management

Computer Networks and Distributed Computing have reached a new phase of development, improving both connectivity and instant and consistent social ability. Over the past few years, Cloud Computing has becoming one of the revolutionary of technologies in ICT growths in both popularity and importance, both in industry field and in academic domain. Recently, a lot of on-going research activities has been focusing on cloud computing's applications and platforms development mainly driven by the world leading companies and network professionals. To exploit both Cloud Computing technology and collaborative agents' productivity potential, this paper outlines how to adopt agent technology as solution for a cloud-based community Care e-Service System to produce effective services scheduling, control and management. Our approach to building software application with integrated cloud services and agent-based solutions which emphasizes the importance of using agent architecture via cloud-based infrastructure, software and platform as a critical key step in developing and producing software architectures and applications.
