Literature Review#
A common task while exploring a new topic is to conduct a literature review. In this example we will explore how a multi-agent team can be configured to conduct a simple literature review.
Arxiv Search Agent: Use the Arxiv API to search for papers related to a given topic and return results.
Google Search Agent: Use the Google Search api to find papers related to a given topic and return results.
Report Agent: Generate a report based on the information collected by the search and stock analysis agents.
First, let us import the necessary modules.
from autogen_agentchat.agents import CodingAssistantAgent, ToolUseAssistantAgent
from autogen_agentchat.task import TextMentionTermination
from autogen_agentchat.teams import RoundRobinGroupChat
from autogen_core.components.tools import FunctionTool
from autogen_ext.models import OpenAIChatCompletionClient
Defining Tools#
Next, we will define the tools that the agents will use to perform their tasks. In this case we will define a simple function search_arxiv that will use the arxiv library to search for papers related to a given topic.
Finally, we will wrap the functions into a FunctionTool class that will allow us to use it as a tool in the agents.
Note: You will need to set the appropriate environment variables for tools as needed.
Also install required libraries:
!pip install arxiv

### Literature Review on No-Code Tools for Building Multi-Agent AI Systems
The development of multi-agent AI systems has been significantly enhanced by the emergence of no-code tools, allowing a broader range of users to engage in the creation and management of complex AI applications without extensive programming knowledge. This literature review synthesizes current research on no-code tools tailored for building multi-agent AI systems, discussing their functionalities, design, and implications.
#### 1. AutoGen Studio
**AutoGen Studio** is a cutting-edge no-code developer tool specifically designed for building and debugging multi-agent systems. Dibia et al. (2024) highlight that this platform simplifies the development process through a web interface that supports drag-and-drop functionalities for creating agent workflows. With a Python API and a JSON-based specification for representing agents, AutoGen Studio allows users to prototype and evaluate workflows effortlessly. This tool not only enhances usability but also fosters collaboration among various generative AI models and tools. The authors emphasize four core design principles that inform the development of no-code tools, aiming to streamline the creation of multi-agent systems (Dibia et al., 2024). [Read the paper here](http://arxiv.org/pdf/2408.15247v1).
#### 2. Levels of AI Agents
In a conceptual exploration, Huang (2024) classifies AI agents into levels based on their capabilities, ranging from rule-based systems (L1) to advanced large language models (LLMs) (L3). This classification is crucial for understanding the potential complexity and collaboration among agents in multi-agent frameworks. These levels imply varying degrees of autonomy and decision-making, which can impact the design of no-code tools intended for multi-agent systems. The consideration of these levels is vital for developing platforms that allow effective integration and collaboration between diverse agent types (Huang, 2024). [Read the paper here](http://arxiv.org/pdf/2405.06643v1).
#### 3. HAICOSYSTEM
**HAICOSYSTEM** presents a novel framework that examines safety risks in human-AI interactions, focusing on multi-agent systems' operational complexities. Zhou et al. (2024) discuss a modular sandbox environment that simulates interactions between AI agents and human users across various scenarios. The framework allows practitioners to evaluate and ensure the safety and performance of agents, emphasizing a crucial aspect that no-code tools must address—handling operational risks in real-time interactions. This research underscores the need for built-in safety and evaluation features within no-code platforms for multi-agent systems (Zhou et al., 2024). [Read the paper here](http://arxiv.org/pdf/2409.16427v2).
#### 4. Collaboration Protocols in AI Agents
Balachandar et al. (2019) focus on the collaborative protocols that enable multiple agents to work together effectively in a competitive setting like grid soccer. Their work discusses various strategies for cooperation and highlights the importance of communication among agents. This foundational understanding of multi-agent interaction can influence the design and implementation of no-code tools by offering insights into how agents can collaborate seamlessly without the need for extensive programming (Balachandar et al., 2019). [Read the paper here](http://arxiv.org/pdf/1907.00327v1).
#### 5. Asynchronous Multi-Agent Cooperation
In a more technical aspect, Yao et al. (2021) introduce the **Partially Observable Asynchronous Multi-Agent Cooperation (POAC)** challenge to evaluate multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) algorithms in asynchronous environments. This environment design shifts the focus from synchronous operations, which are common in many existing no-code tools, to more realistic settings reflecting real-world complexities. The flexibility and adaptability required for asynchronous operations highlight critical design considerations for the next generation of no-code development tools (Yao et al., 2021). [Read the paper here](http://arxiv.org/pdf/2112.03809v1).
### Conclusion
No-code tools for building multi-agent AI systems are rapidly evolving, offering unprecedented access to AI development for users without programming expertise. Tools like AutoGen Studio provide essential frameworks for agent collaboration, while safety frameworks like HAICOSYSTEM remind developers of the necessity of operational integrity. Insights from collaboration protocols and asynchronous environments further inform the development and refinement of these tools. As the landscape grows, these no-code platforms will likely play a pivotal role in democratizing the development of sophisticated multi-agent systems across various domains.
