Agent-Oriented Cooperation of IoT Devices Towards Advanced Logistics

There are several researches, products and standards for smart devices to realize Internet of Things (IoT) applications. In order to take full advantage of IoT devices, this paper proposes an agent-oriented cooperation infrastructure. As the core functionalities of the infrastructure, we propose agent-based device management function, self-state management function, and cooperation function among IoT agents. We have implemented 2 experimental systems to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed functionalities of the infrastructure.
