Coordination within decentralized agent groups frequently requires reaching global consensus, but typical hierarchical approaches to reaching such decisions can be complex, slow, ...
This demo illustrates MAS-DisCoSim 4 PDP, a testbed environment for evaluating distributed multi-agent system solutions to pickup and delivery problems (PDPs). PDPs are well-studi...

Abstract. Many agent coordination problems can be modeled as distributed constraint optimization problems (DCOPs). ADOPT is an asynchronous and distributed search algorithm that is...
Constraint satisfaction has been applied with great success in closed-world scenarios, where all options and constraints are known from the beginning and fixed. With the internet,...
Coalition formation is an important form of interaction in multiagent systems. It enables the agents to satisfy tasks that they would otherwise be unable to perform, or would perf...
