: Both, games in a game theoretic sense and protocols in an informational sense describe rule based interactions between systems. Some similarities and differences of both approach...
This paper generalises the theory of agent refinement from [1] to multi-agent systems in the presence of new coordination mechanisms extended with real time. The generalisation is ...

Learning Automata (LA) were recently shown to be valuable tools for designing Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning algorithms. One of the principal contributions of LA theory is tha...
Social and intentional behaviours appear as two main components of the agent paradigm. Methods of conventional software engineering do not seem to be appropriate to gain a full kno...
For bidders in standard sealed bid auctions, I believe that decision theory dominates game theory. Even in the design of auctions, decision theory competes well with game theory. ...
