— Distributed computing systems are increasingly being created as self-organizing collections of many autonomous (human or software) agents cooperating as peers. Peer-to-peer coo...
A generalization of the Reversed Compound Agent Theorem of Markovian process algebra is derived that yields separable, but non-product-form solutions for collections of interactin...
— By combining a low-order model of forecast errors, the extended Kalman filter, and classical continuous optimization, we develop an integrated methodology for planning mobile ...
Overhearing is gaining attention as a generic method for cooperative monitoring of distributed, open, multiagent systems. It involves monitoring the routine conversations of agent...
Multi-agent research often borrows from biology, where remarkable examples of collective intelligence may be found. One interesting example is ant colonies’ use of pheromones as...
