A collective of agents often needs to maximize a “world utility” function which rates the performance of an entire system, while subject to communication restrictions among th...
We consider the problem of cooperative multiagent planning under uncertainty, formalized as a decentralized partially observable Markov decision process (Dec-POMDP). Unfortunately...

In this paper, we explore how to effectively create and use "instant mesh networks", i.e., wireless mesh networks that are dynamically deployed in temporary circumstances...

Given a specification of communication rules in a multiagent system (in the form of protocols, ACL semantics, etc.), the question of how to design appropriate agents that can oper...
