Agent Oriented Programming

Agent Oriented Programming is a paradigm of programming that makes communication between autonomous components the central compositional notion. It is a method for Distributed AI, however, it has been applied to a number of other areas. Agent0 is the first AOP language whose author coined the AOP term, though Agents had seen use as early as Hewitt's work on the ACTOR? system.

Other possible resources

FIPA is the Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agents, which is a clearinghouse and interest group. I do not yet know if it has links to CL agent software. It seems to mostly have links to specifications.
UMBC (the University of Maryland Baltimore County) has an AgentWeb with links to software, etc. I see nothing in CL that is Open Source or academic.

Notes:

It seems a sad reflection of CL's slippage in the AI and academic research communities that virtually all of the publicly-available agent-based systems frameworks are in Java.
The LISA system has "agent" in its name, but despite this seems primarily aimed at Expert Systems? applications rather than agent oriented programming.
