The article provides an overview of multi-agent systems and technologies. Multi-agent systems are a subfield of distributed artificial intelligence that is growing rapidly due to the flexibility and intelligence available to solve distributed problems. This chapter provides a brief overview of multi-agent systems. They cover various attributes such as architecture, communication,
coordination strategies, decision making, and learning abilities. In the work it is offered to use the distributed system of planning of several agents on the basis of the cooperative approach for the decision of static and dynamic problems of planning of works.
