Multi agent systems (MAS) are useful for building up software systems
that can controll complex technical systems. When dialogue systems are
incorporated, user intentions can be communicated to the system via
speech and are processed by hierarchically organized autonomous agents
with distributed knowledge and responsibilities in the application
domain. Agents on deeper levels in the hierarchy execute, observe, and
refine plans constructed by higher level agents. Conflicts between
requirements of tasks and the current application state are resolved by
local planning and negotiating with the user.
