  abstract = {Soft Agent Computing ({SAC}) is a new branch of computational intelligence which draws together the ideas of soft computing with the agent paradigm. It is believed this union will deliver technology which inherits the benefits of both and thereby provide solutions which have some of the features of human cognition and the intuitive, system level, abstraction of agent technology. Notwithstanding the attraction of {SAC} it is recognised that there are many deep technical and philosophical issues yet to be solved. In this paper, we investigate a number of these issues from two different perspectives, agent characteristics and architectural. Then we present different abstraction layers of a {SAC} architecture and propose and describe a practical {SAC} system, based on the Beliefs-Desires-Intentions model. Finally, various aspects to be considered when building {SAC} systems are discussed and a number of potential research areas for further research are recommended.},
