This paper describes the multi-agent organization of a computer system that was designed to assist operators in decision making in the presence of emergencies. The application was ...
In theories of cognition that view the mind as a system of interacting agents, there must be mechanisms for aggregate decision-making, such as voting. Here we show that certain vo...

Constraint programming is a commonly used technology for solving complex combinatorial problems. However, users of this technology need significant expertise in order to model the...
Evolutionary models typically rely on a single level of evolution for training a team of cooperating agents. I present a model that evolves at two levels—an “organizational”...
Decentralized Markov Decision Processes are a powerful general model of decentralized, cooperative multi-agent problem solving. The high complexity of the general problem leads to...
