An Intelligent Agent (IA) is a type of autonomous entity in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) that gathers
information about its surroundings using sensors, takes action in response to that information using actuators ("agent"
part), and guides its behavior to achieve predetermined results (i.e. it is rational). Agents that are both intelligent and able
to learn or utilize information to accomplish their tasks would be ideal. Similar to how economists study agents,
cognitive scientists, ethicists, philosophers of practical reason and researchers in a wide range of other disciplines study
variations of the IAmodel used in multidisciplinary socio-cognitive modelling and computer social simulation models. In
this article, the term "Multi-Agent System" (MAS) has been used to refer to a system in which two or more autonomous
entities communicate with one another. The key objective of this research is to provide a critical analysis of MAS and its
applications in power systems. A case study to define the application of MAS in power system is also provided, using a
critical implementation of fuzzy logic controllers.
