Online mechanism design considers the problem of sequential decision making in a multi-agent system with self-interested agents. The agent population is dynamic and each agent has...
This paper develops a model for precisely defining how an agent interacts with objects in its environment through the use of its capabilities. Capabilities are recursively defined ...
In the context of UMTS mobile applications require the consistency of information, and the configuration of interfaces and applications. These requirements can be depicted by subtl...
This article describes preliminary work on a research environment called Virtual Synergy to represent a shared virtual map of an area for multiple autonomous robots by modifying t...
Negotiation is a fundamental mechanism in distributed multi-agent systems. Since negotiation is a time-spending process, in many scenarios agents have to take into account the pas...
