Abstract

A distributed system architecture comprising at least one agent wherein the or each agent has a predefined function and wherein the or each may input and/or output at least one of a plurality of data types and a wiring layer which defines at least one interaction with an agent and which defines the or each data type exchanged in the or each interaction. The system architecture may be implemented in a telecommunciations system.
