— Delegating the coordination role to proxy agents can improve the overall outcome of the task at the expense of cognitive overload due to switching subtasks. Stability and commi...
This paper focuses on Coalition Formation paradigm as a market mechanism. Concretely, Coalition Formation occurs as part of a wider open world and may occur many times during the l...
This paper describes two self-optimisation techniques that have been employed in the design of two exemplar agent-based mobile computing systems, namely Gullivers Genie and the Ag...

In the Markov decision process (MDP) formalization of reinforcement learning, a single adaptive agent interacts with an environment defined by a probabilistic transition function....
We explore the relationship between properties of the network defined by connected agents and the global system performance. This is achieved by means of a novel class of optimiza...
