In cooperative multi-agent systems, roles are used as a design concept when creating large systems, they are known to facilitate specialization of agents, and they can help to redu...
Abstract. This paper describes an architecture for modeling cooperating systems of communicating agents. The authors’ goal is not that of providing a framework to implement multi...

The multiagent systems community has adopted game theory as a framework for the design of systems of multiple self-interested agents. For this to be effective, efficient algorith...
In this paper we describe a channel-based exogenous coordination language, called Reo, and discuss its application to multi-agent systems. Reo supports a specific notion of compo...
