We consider the problem of how to design large decentralized multiagent systems (MAS’s) in an automated fashion, with little or no hand-tuning. Our approach has each agent run a...
Abstract Complex systems call for a hierarchical description. Analogously, the engineering of non-trivial MASs (multiagent systems) requires principles and mechanisms for a multi-l...

The ability to respond sensibly to changing and conflicting beliefs is an integral part of intelligent agency. To this end, we outline the design and implementation of a Distribute...

Agent description and discovery (ADD) is a critical infrastructure for open multi-agent services. As multi-agent systems grow larger and more diverse, it becomes harder to locate ...
Much research in multi-agent systems reflects the field’s origins in classical artificial intelligence, showing how various refinements to the internal reasoning of individual a...
