Population protocols have been introduced as a model of sensor networks consisting of very limited mobile agents with no control over their own movement: A collection of anonymous ...
We consider the model of population protocols introduced by Angluin et al. [2], in which anonymous finite-state agents stably compute a predicate of their inputs via twoway inter...
This paper deals with a multiagent self-organization process aiming to give adaptive features to distributed embedded systems involving intelligent agents in open real world. We p...

In an organizational context the norms that apply to an agent depend on the roles he holds in the organization. The deontic characterization of structural roles is defined when th...
