Discovery of Emergent Natural Laws by Hierarchical Multi-Agent Systems
This paper defines an approach to simulation of natural systems, inspired by complex systems theory. A complex natural system is modeled as a multi-agent simulation system, agents...

Symbolic Simulation of Hybrid Systems
Continuous action systems (CAS) is a formalism intended for modeling hybrid systems (systems that combine discrete control with continuous behavior), and proving properties about ...

Separating Introspection and Intercession to Support Metamorphic Distributed Systems
Many middleware platforms use computational reflection to support adaptive functionality. Most approaches intertwine the activity of observing behavior (introspection) with the a...

A Bayesian Framework for Reinforcement Learning
The reinforcement learning problem can be decomposed into two parallel types of inference: (i) estimating the parameters of a model for the underlying process; (ii) determining be...

A Coordination Language for Collective Agent Based Systems: GroupLog
We describe a language providing concepts for modeling autonomous entities (agents) and cooperating entities (groups). Agents are the execution units of a GroupLog program. Each a...
