Abstract:
The Redux server is an agent, with no domain-specific knowledge, that provides generic coordination services to distributed design systems. The coordination is accomplished by a. "wrapper" technique, requiring relatively little modification of existing agents. Yet. the coordination services significantly extend, the usual ask/tell agent protocols. These advantages are obtained because the server is based on a simple and ubiquitous search-based model of design decisions.
