The growth of the Internet has led to new avenues for distance education. A crucial factor for the success of distance education is effective mechanisms for distance evaluation. E...
Simulating a system of agents that navigate in a physical space is a challenging problem when the environment is sophisticated and the number of agents involved is large. We descr...
Layered architectures are a proven principle for the design of software systems and components. The paper introduces a layered reference architecture for software agents which assi...
In recent years, there has been increasing interest in computational models of biological systems based on various calculi of communicating processes, such as the stochastic pi-ca...
Abstract. The deployment of agent societies —as complex systems— in dynamic and unpredictable settings brings forth critical issues concerning their design. Organizational mode...
