There exists a widely recognized need to better understand and manage complex "systems of systems," ranging from biology, ecology, and medicine to network-centric technol...
This work focuses on an emerging extension to traditional agent models, called Hierarchical Mobile Agents model, where an agent can contain other agents recursively. The model ena...
