A spatial computer is a distributed multi-agent system that is embedded in a geometric space. A key challenge is engineering local agent interaction rules that enable spatial comp...
Abstract. As agents move into ever more important applications, there is a natural growth in interest in techniques for synthesizing multiagent systems. We describe an approach for...
The purpose of this paper is to present the main characteristics of ADF, an open source agent developing platform with a focus on agent collaboration. The basic architecture of th...
— The agent paradigm has been the subject of much research during the last decade. Recently, security of multiagent systems has gained increased attention. In this paper we consi...
Software engineers continually strive to develop tools and techniques to manage the complexity that is inherent in software systems. In this article, we argue that intelligent agen...
