— 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...
Large systems of agents deployed in a real-world environment face threats to their problem solving performance that are independent of the complexity of the problem or the charact...
We present a framework for coordinating autonomous planning agents. Together, these agents have to achieve a set of interdependent (elementary) tasks. Each of the agents receives a...
We propose location-mediated service coordination in ubiquitous computing. In the coordination, middle agents determine bestmatched services for a user by considering the user’s...
Abstract. We address the problem of constructing multiagent systems by coordinating autonomous agents, whose internal designs may not be fully known. We develop a customizable coor...
