Research questionHow can heterogeneous AI agents interoperate across frameworks, tools, and execution environments?Agents developed in different technical ecosystems often cannot exchange requests, context, or results directly. This fragmentation makes cross-system coordination depend on custom integrations between otherwise compatible agents and services. Latest papersRecent research connected to this question, newest first.The Natural Language Interaction Protocol and Standard for AI AgentsThe source concerns a standards-based application-layer protocol for agent interaction. It describes semantic message envelopes carried over HTTP/HTTPS, WebSocket, and AMQP, along with gateways that adapt between agents, context stores, ontologies, tools, enterprise services, and heterogeneous underlying protocols. It also discusses security-by-design, a reference implementation, representative applications, adoption signals, and relationships to other emerging agent protocols.research paper · Sep 3, 2026
