We study how decentralized agents can develop a shared vocabulary without global coordination. Answering this question can help us understand the emergence of many communication s...
Mechanism design (MD) has recently become a very popular approach in the design of distributed systems of autonomous agents. A key assumption required for the application of MD is...
In many multiagent settings, situations arise in which agents must collectively make decisions while not every agent is supposed to have an equal amount of influence in the outcom...
Using simulation environments to support mobile distributed application development has many benefits. Since mobile devices can be modeled as autonomous intelligent agents, the mu...
Adversariality of the agents with respect to the multi-agent system can be a serious issue in the design of open multi-agent systems. Until now, many incoherent definitions of suc...
