The goal of this paper is to explore the effects of synchronization on distributed decision making processes. In particular, we examine the dynamics of a spatially distributed mul...
Airport Baggage Handling is a field of automation systems that is currently dependent on centralised control systems and conventional automation programming techniques. In this and...
Agents must decide with whom to interact, which is nontrivial when no central directories are available. A classical decentralized approach is referral systems, where agents adapt...
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...
Emergent processes are non-routine, collaborative business processes whose execution is guided by the knowledge that emerges during a process instance. In so far as the process go...
