Review of autonomous systems and collaborative AI agent frameworks
Open accessAbstract
This paper provides an in-depth review of the latest AI agent frameworks, focusing on the comparison of their features, architectures, and use cases. We examine well-known frameworks such as LangGraph, CrewAI, OpenAI Swarm, AutoGen, and IBM Watsonx.Ai, highlighting their strengths, weaknesses, and applicability to various domains. Additionally, we categorize the frameworks based on their specific use cases, including general-purpose agents, enterprise solutions, and open-source frameworks. The paper emphasizes the importance of selecting the appropriate framework to build autonomous AI systems and offers insights into future trends and challenges in AI agent development. By analyzing quantitative metrics such as latency, throughput, and scalability, we provide a data-driven evaluation of the frameworks’ performance. Furthermore, we explore the implications of these advancements in real-world applications, including their impact on financial markets, risk management, and enterprise automation. This review serves as a comprehensive guide for developers and researchers seeking to understand the evolving landscape of AI agent frameworks and their potential for future innovation. Since this is very niche and rapidly evolving field with scarcity of journal papers and this work uses white-paper and model documents to organize this literature review for peer reviewed literature creation. Most of the developments discussed in this work is less than 12 months old. This paper provides a comprehensive review of AI agent frameworks by categorizing literature based on publication year, category, and field.

Modern agent frameworks often implement a shared knowledge store or blackboard that agents can read from and write to during collaboration.
“Modern agent frameworks often implement a shared knowledge store or blackboard that agents can read from and write to during collaboration [16].”
From A Review of Multi-Agent AI Systems for Biological and Clinical Data Analysis (2026) · cites this paper as [16]
Section 5.3, “Multi-Agent Systems for Collaborative Problem Solving” (page not provided), discusses collaborative frameworks and proposes that future systems enable agents to share knowledge. It does not say that modern frameworks often implement a shared store or blackboard that agents read from and write to. (LLM, conf=0.82)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredMAS orchestration frameworks provide the infrastructure and design patterns to build systems where multiple AI agents collaborate and solve data-analysis problems more effectively than any individual agent alone.
“MAS orchestration frameworks provide the infrastructure and design patterns (messaging systems, shared memory stores, standardized agent interfaces, etc.) to build systems where multiple AI agents collaborate and solve data-analysis problems more effectively than any individual agent alone [9,16].”
From A Review of Multi-Agent AI Systems for Biological and Clinical Data Analysis (2026) · cites this paper as [16]
Sections 2.1 and 5.3 (pages unavailable) describe orchestration frameworks and multi-agent systems for collaborative problem-solving. They do not establish that agents solve data-analysis problems more effectively than an individual agent, and the cited passages do not specify the messaging, shared-memory, or standardized-interface features in the printed sentence.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
