NEW PLATFORM TIMER FOR THE TEMPORAL CONTROL OF THE SYSTEMS DISTRIBUTED WITH THE MULTI-AGENT SYSTEMS - APPLICATION IN A PLATFORM MACHINE TO MACHINE OF REMOTE CONTROL

In the current era where the parameter time constitutes a critical component in several domains, most of the applications are of real-time type. They can serve the domains of the aeronautics, the automobile, the multimedia, etc. The specificity of these real-time systems is in the obligation to answer in time very precise, otherwise, a defect of precise answer for the deadline can provoke even catastrophic or disastrous consequences in certain cases. The new platform Timer arrives to solve the problem of the control of time for the systems distributed with the systems multi-agent -SMA- , sound objective it is to connect to the systems SMA to control and to elaborate a report to detail various periods taken for every agent of the SMA. In this paper we propose a new approach multi-platform called "Timer" for the distributed architectures multiagents. This approach is validated and implemented on platforms Machine to Machine of computer-aided for remote control of a mobile robot Khepera III via various modes of communications. The works described below validate the functioning of our architecture of control of the temporal constraints of this platform.. The objective of this Timer is to verify the capacity of every agent of the platform to perceive its environment and to elaborate an answer in required time. This new approach can control several SMA (develop it c, c or Java) situated in different operating systems (Windows or Linux),rejoinder on several machines, And elaborate a report detail various periods taken for every agent of the SMA.
