Distributed blackboard is one of the popular agent communication architectures, where the blackboards location and communication topology are two important issues However, there are few works about the issues To solve this problem, this paper presents a new method, which applies Multi-Medians Location Method to compute the sub-blackboard locations, and applies Steinner Tree Method to compute the communication topology among sub-blackboards The model can construct the distributed blackboard architecture effectively according to the current underlying network topology.
