In an open system, multi-agent computations must compete for resources required for satisfying their goals. We describe CyberOrgs, a hierarchical model for acquisition and control...
Product Distribution (PD) theory was recently developed as a framework for analyzing and optimizing distributed systems. In this paper we demonstrate its use for adaptive distribu...
1 A hybrid (symbolic/connectionist) cognitive architecture, DUAL, is proposed. It is a multi-agent system which consist of a large number of non-cognitive, relatively simple agents...
Multi Agent Based Simulation (MABS) has been used mostly in purely social contexts. However, compared to other approaches, e.g., traditional discrete event simulation, object-orien...
Abstract This paper contributes to the design of intelligent buildings. A MultiAgents Home Automation System (MAHAS) is proposed which controls appliances and energy sources in bui...
