Intermodal transport involves multiple actors working together. It accomplishes transport tasks through coordination, joint adventure, sharing profits. Nowadays it tends to be collaborative/cooperative, information/knowledge-based, and sustainability-oriented. Knowledge sharing is the act of making knowledge available to others, which can consist with this trend for better performances. The MAS has been applied successfully for a variety of industrial problems. For the specific capabilities of MAS turn it into a promising candidate in providing a knowledge sharing solution, this paper proposes a solution to investigate knowledge sharing for intermodal transport from a multi-agent perspective. The main task of this paper is the design of the architecture of MA-KSP. It is constituted of four types of agents identified by their active roles: access agent, resources-based agent, communication facilitator agent, and functioning agent. These agents can interact and collaborate to help the users retrieving, exchanging and creating knowledge. Besides, a basic understanding of knowledge content is provided such as the knowledge relate to time, cost, reliability, flexibility and legitimization. In order to show how the MA-KSP works in the real-world, one of the scenarios in intermodal transport is illustrated. Results of this paper are expected to contribute effects to actors in intermodal transport through MA-KSP.
