As a case study that illustrates our view on coordination and component-based software engineering, we present the design and implementation of a parallel constraint solver. The pa...
Abstract. Task-based planning problems for multi-agent systems require multiple agents to find a joint plan for a constrained set of tasks. Typically, each agent receives a subset...

Our approach to the spatial coordination problem relies on parametrized force fields. Through a quantitative comparison on a complex spatial coordination problem treated with a s...
This paper presents and evaluates a decision making framework that enables autonomous agents to dynamically select the mechanism they employ in order to coordinate their inter-rela...
Abstract. We present GCCS, a graphical coordination language for hierarchical concurrent systems. GCCS, which is implemented in the Concurrency Factory design environment, represen...
