Abstract
We built a multi-agent information system (MAIS) called Sherpa using distri buted artificial intelligence architecture. The system integrates distribut ed knowledge sources and information to help the Wisconsin Division of Narc otics Enforcement (WDNE) make decisions about the level of charges against a drug crime suspect. Sherpa outperforms the existing system in the identif ication of criminals.
