Distributed artificial intelligence (DAI) also called Decentralized Artificial Intelligence^[1] is a subfield of artificial intelligence research dedicated to the development of distributed solutions for problems. DAI is closely related to and a predecessor of the field of multi-agent systems.

Multi-agent systems and distributed problem solving are the two main DAI approaches. There are numerous applications and tools.
