Abstract
Intelligent Agents have originated a lot discussion about what they are, and how they are a different from general programs. We describe in this paper a new paradigm for intelligent agents, This paradigm helped us deal with failures in an independent and efficient way. We proposed these types of agents to treat the system in a hierarchical way. The Agent Node is also described. A new method to visualize fault tolerant system (FTS) is proposed, in this paper witch the incorporation of intelligent agents, which as they grow and specialized create the Agent System (MAS).One is the communications diagrams of the each of the agents, described in diagrams of transaction of states.
