A strength of commitment protocols is that they enable agents to act flexibly, thereby enabling them to accommodate varying local policies and respond to exceptions. A consequent ...
In complex distributed applications, a problem is often decomposed into a set of subproblems that are distributed to multiple agents. We formulate this class of problems with a tw...
For an agent to intelligently use specifications of executable protocols, it is necessary that the agent can quickly and correctly assess the outcomes of that protocol if it is ex...
Abstract. The agent/multi-agent system paradigm is an important field of Artificial Intelligence. The use of this paradigm in real-world problems is one of the main lines of intere...
This paper aims at giving a classification of argumentation games agents play within a multi-agent setting. We investigate different scenarios of such argumentation games that dif...
