An Intelligent Multi-Agent System Architecture for Enhancing Self-Management of Type 2 Diabetic Patients

Abstract

This paper presents a multi agent system which can help type 2 diabetic patients. Because of diabetes nature, medical care and lifestyle can both prevent the complications of this illness, so self-managing is very crucial for these patients. Therefore, each effective factor of controlling diabetes and increasing patients' knowledge including: suitable diet and monitoring blood glucose level, is assigned to be an agent which works independently whilst coordinates and cooperates with other agents. The proposed architecture of this multi agent system organizes all the various agents of this system in a way that not only each of them can accomplish their responsibility, but also they can have effective interaction with other agents. This designed system has the ability to develop a model that can be easily used by patients suffering from type 2 diabetes.
