This paper discusses the possibility of utilizing a multiagent system as a platform for development of a smart adaptive system in medicine. A knowledge-based model of the agents’ mutual awareness (social knowledge) is presented. The tri-base acquaintance (3bA) model formalizing the agent’s social behaviour knowledge and co-operation neighbourhood knowledge is enhanced to support attention focussing and to ensure a holistic complex perception of the problem. The paper focuses on an analysis of the content of 3bA knowledge bases for applications in medical decision support. An architecture for a multiagent system, ADAM, for medical decision support and monitoring is proposed.

Key Words: medical diagnostics • monitoring • multiagent system
