Theperformanceof individual agents in a group dependscritically on the quality of information available to it about local and global goals and resources. In general it is assumed ...
We introduce the Consensual N-Player Prisoner’s Dilemma as a large-scale dilemma. We then present a framework for cooperative consensus formation in large-scale MAS under the N-P...
We present a decentralized adaptive filtering algorithm where each agent acts selfishly to maximize its payoff. Agents are only aware of the actions of other agents within their...
The concept of stigmergy provides a simple framework for interaction and coordination in multi-agent systems. However, determining the global system behavior that will arise from ...
