This paper asks a new question: how can we control the collective behavior of self-organized multi-agent systems? We try to answer the question by proposing a new notion called `So...
— In this work, an hybrid, self-configurable, multilayered and evolutionary subsumption architecture for cognitive agents is developed. Each layer of the multilayered architectur...
Modern software control systems must cope with uncertainty, manage dynamic environments, as well as provide greater flexibility. Distributed agent-based control systems are the id...
There are many methodological approaches for Agent-Oriented Software Engineering, each one focusing on some features of multi-agent systems, but leaving others underdefined. For t...
In this paper, we describe a nature-inspired optimization algorithm based on bee foraging behavior. This algorithm combines the high performance of bee path-integration navigation...
