This paper describes the design and implementation of a system base software platform for transputer-based systems that is being used for experimentation in prognostic and monitoring of CNC machines using the multi-agent paradigm. After an introduction to the application domain, the basic requiremen

✦ Synopsis
We present a logic programming based asynchronous multi-agent system in which agents can communicate with one another; update themselves and each other; abduce hypotheses to explain observations, and use them to generate actions. The knowledge base of the agents is comprised of generalized logic programs, integrity constraints, active rules, and of abducibles. We characterize the interaction among agents via an asynchronous transition rule system, and provide a stable models based semantics. An example is developed to illustrate how our approach works.
