Mobile agent systems have many attractive features including asynchrony, openness, dynamicity and anonymity, which makes them indispensable in designing complex modern application...
Synchronization is widely considered as an important service in distributed systems which may simplify protocol design. Phase clock is a general synchronization tool that provides ...
This paper describes an analysis of benevolent agents in multiagent systems (MAS). We first present a definition and motivation for benevolence that is appropriate for MAS. We the...
