Zusammenfassung
This paper explores the integration of the Gaia-X framework into a Multi-Agent System (MAS) for managing a smart freight fleet, emphasizing identity and trust management. Focusing on a subsystem of delivery agents and autonomous robots, this study exemplarily illustrates how Gaia-X can be integrated in existing ecosystems consisting of software agents and appertaining services and assets. By utilizing Organizational Credential Managers (OCMs), mediator services and wallets, the paper addresses the challenges of credential management and connectivity for mobile edge devices like delivery robots. This integration showcases the potential of Gaia-X to improve the security and interoperability of smart freight systems, contributing to the advancement of trusted digital ecosystems in the logistics sector.
