From a software engineering perspective, agent systems are a specialization of object-oriented (OO) systems, in which individual objects have their own threads of control and thei...
Communication is the key feature of Multi-agent Systems. The interactions among components of a system may take many distinct forms of increasing complexity such as in auctions, n...
Abstract— The present paper considers distributed consensus algorithms for agents evolving on a connected compact homogeneous (CCH) manifold. The agents track no external referen...
We present a logical framework for representing the agents in two different cooperating information systems. We define an architecture for Integrated Supply Chain Management in wh...
Abstract. We show how to embed a framework for multilateral negotiation, in which a group of agents implement a sequence of deals concerning the exchange of a number of resources, ...
