摘要：A multi-agent system (MAS) is understood as a collection of intelligent agents that interact with each other and work together to achieve a goal. Since it consists of many agents, the communication, coordination, and scheduling among agents are important issues in MAS. This paper presents a study on the effect of agent scheduling on the performance of a MAS. The study is conducted on a small parameterized MAS, which is a Sudoku solver. Four agent scheduling scenarios have been developed and implemented. Some experiments have been conducted to measure the performance of each scenario. It is shown that the scheduling scenarios have effect on the system performance.
