A Three Tier Secure KQML Interface with Novel Performatives (original) (raw)

Abstract

Knowledge Query Manipulation Language (KQML) and FIPA ACL are two prime communication languages existing in multi agent systems (MAS). Although both the languages are more or less similar in terms of semantics (based on speech act theory) and offers cutting edge competition while establishing agent communication across Internet. But in contrast to the fact that software agents operating on the internet are required to be more safeguarded from their counter-peer, both the protocols lack security performatives. The paper proposes a three tier security interface with few novel security related performatives enhancing the basic architecture of KQML. The three levels are attestation, certification and trust establishment which enforces a tight security and hence reduces the security breeches.
