Enabling and managing coordination activities between autonomous, possibly mobile, computing entities in dynamic computing scenarios challenges traditional approaches to distribut...
In this paper we present how to use the Agent MOdeling LAnguage (AMOLA) to define agent interaction protocols and how to integrate these in an agent model. AMOLA provides the synt...
: The design and development of Internet applications, requiring dynamic and possibly mobile access to Internet resources, can take advantage of an approach based on autonomous mob...
This paper introduces a peer-to-peer agent framework for supporting autonomic applications in decentralized distributed environments. The framework provides agents to discover, co...
Autonomy is regarded as a crucial notion in multi-agent systems and several researchers have tried to identify what are the agent's parts that give it an autonomous character....
