There is little or no guidance to systematically design a self-organising emergent solution that achieves the desired macroscopic behaviour. This paper describes decentralised coor...
Abstract. In this paper we formulate a novel Divide-andCoordinate (DaC) algorithm, the so-called Egalitarian Utilities Divide-and-Coordinate (EU-DaC) algorithm. The Divide-andCoord...
The structural details of a firm’s business processes are traditionally inaccessible to entities outside the firm. However, as firms move towards tighter coordination of process...
We describe a language providing concepts for modeling autonomous entities (agents) and cooperating entities (groups). Agents are the execution units of a GroupLog program. Each a...
Several recent control applications consider the coordination of subsystems through local interaction. Often the interaction has a symmetry in state space, e.g. invariance with res...
