Researchers in the field of multiagent sequential decision making have commonly used the terms “weakly-coupled” and “loosely-coupled” to qualitatively classify problems i...
In multi-agent planning environments, action models for each agent must be given as input. However, creating such action models by hand is difficult and time-consuming, because i...
: Most of today’s e-marketplaces support a single negotiation protocol. The protocol is usually built into the e-marketplace infrastructure, therefore if a new one is introduced ...
Developing scalable coordination algorithms for multi-agent systems is a hard computational challenge. One useful approach, demonstrated by the Coverage Set Algorithm (CSA), explo...
In this paper we present analysis and calibration techniques that exploit knowledge about a multi agent society in order to calibrate the system parameters of a corresponding socie...
