New multimedia embedded applications are increasingly dynamic, and rely on Dynamically-allocated Data Types (DDTs) to store their data. The optimization of DDTs for each target em...
In this paper, we present a simulation model specifically for investigating formal and informal organisational structures. CAVALIER-NPA (Networks of Planning Agents) is an agent-b...
Abstract. In this paper, we identify some problems with current formalizations of conditional commitments, i.e. commitments to achieve a goal if some condition becomes true. We pre...
Systems of argumentation or ’computational dialectic’ are emerging as a powerful means of structuring inter-agent communication in multi-agent systems. Individual systems of c...
In this paper, we propose a novel approach to solving the distributed constraint optimisation problem (DCOP) that guarantees completeness, while having linear communication comple...
