The paper proposes a set of principles and a general architecture that may explain how language and meaning may originate and complexify in a group of physically grounded distribu...
In a multi-agent system, agents must decide what to do and by what order. Autonomy is a key notion in such a system, since it is mainly the autonomy of the agents that makes the en...
