A two stage approach to co-ordination in a multi-agent society is presented. The first stage involves agents learning to co-ordinate their activities based on local and global uti...
Communication is essential in multi-agent systems, since it allows agents to share knowledge and to coordinate. However, in open multi-agent systems, autonomous and heterogeneous a...
We present several new algorithms for multiagent reinforcement learning. A common feature of these algorithms is a parameterized, structured representation of a policy or value fu...

Effective slack management, i.e. management of unused computing resources, for real-time control tasks mandates to redistribute the available resources between controllers as a f...
A new approach of coordination of decisions in a multi site system is proposed. It is based this approach on a multi-agent concept and on the principle of distributed network of e...
