KQML (Knowledge Query and Manipulation Language)

KQML (Knowledge Query and Manipulation Language) is a protocol used by software agents to communicate with each other. It defines a standard way for agents to send messages like asking questions, sharing information, or requesting actions. Think of it as a common language that allows different computer programs to understand and work together efficiently, especially in complex tasks like data management, decision-making, or coordinating activities across multiple systems. KQML focuses on flexibility and extensibility, enabling diverse agents to collaborate in a structured, meaningful way.
