This paper explores Belief-Desire-Intention (BDI) agents, focusing on integrating late and early variable binding strategies in the AgentSpeak(L) language. We comprehensively evaluate these strategies by introducing novel experimental environments simulating a virtual marketplace and a robotic logistics system. Additionally, we integrate a CAN-based failure handling mechanism to test its impact on both binding strategies. Our findings show that the late binding strategy significantly enhances agent performance in complex, dynamic scenarios, especially when combined with failure handling. We also acknowledge and discuss the computational overheads associated with late bindings. This research advances the robustness and adaptability of BDI agents, demonstrating their potential for real-world applications.
