The trigger for the lookup actuator is lookupPlat(?discURL,?platform), where the ?discURL variable represents the address of the discovery server and the ?platform variable represents the name of the platform. The agent adopts the belief platformAddr(?platform,?platURL) once the address for the platform has been obtained.
