We study the combinatorial auction (CA) problem, in which m objects are sold to rational agents and the goal is to maximize social welfare. Of particular interest is the special ca...
We demonstrate the emergence of collective behavior in two evolutionary computation systems, one an evolutionary extension of a classic (highly constrained) flocking algorithm and...

This paper is concerned with the problem of obtaining predictable interactions between groups of agents in open environments when individual agents do not expose their bdi logic. ...

We study communication primitives for interaction between mobile agents. They can be classified into two groups. At a low level there are location dependent primitives that require...

We develop a Belief-Desire-Intention (BDI) style agent-oriented programming language with special emphasis on the semantics of goals in the presence of the typical BDI failure han...
