Abstract. Dependable distributed applications require flexible infrastructure support for controlled redundancy, replication, and recovery of components and services. However, mos...
Multi-agent systems comprise multiple, deliberative agents embedded in and recreating patterns of interactions. Each agent’s execution consumes considerable storage and calculat...
Autonomic distributed management enables for deploying self-directed monitoring and control tasks that track dynamic network problems such as performance degradation and security t...
The paper presents a load management mechanism for distributed simulations of multi-agent systems. The mechanism minimises the cost of accessing the shared state in the distribute...

One large and quite interesting family of MAS applications is characterized (1) by their large scale in terms of number of agents and physical distribution, (2) by their very dynam...
