While multi-agent systems seem to provide a good basis for building complex software systems, this paper points out some of the drawbacks of classical “agent centered” multi-ag...
The perfectly synchronized round model provides the abstraction of crash-stop failures with atomic message delivery. This abstraction makes distributed programming very easy. We p...
