We present an organisation infrastructure for open MultiAgent Systems built upon a role-based access control model (RBAC), which provides agents with means to enable and control a...
Distributed multi-agent systems require naming services to locate and communicate with remote agents. In this paper we focus on the design and implementation of the “White Pages...
We propose a preliminary methodology for agent-oriented software engineering based on the idea of agent interaction analysis. This approach uses interactions between undetermined a...
Agents in an open system interact with each other based on (typically, published) protocols. An agent may, however, deviate from the protocol because of its internal policies. Such...
The organisational specification of a multi-agent system supports agents’ effectiveness in attaining their purpose, or prevent certain undesired behaviour from occurring. This r...
