An Open Virtual Environment for Autonomous Agents Using VRML and Java
We describe a VRML/Java-based virtual environment that is populated with heterogeneous articulated agents. In this simulated environment, agents compete for collecting certain obj...

Integrating Autonomous Behavior and User Control for Believable Agents
Autonomous agents can help users by taking on a substantial workload, and performing tasks that are too complex for a human. However, in some systems complete autonomy is undesira...

Rapid Development and Flexible Deployment of Adaptive Wireless Sensor Network Applications
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are difficult to program and usually run statically-installed software limiting its flexibility. To address this, we developed Agilla, a new midd...

When opportunity proceeds from autonomy: A tour-based architecture for disconnected mobile sensors
We consider the case of sparse mobile sensors deployed to implement missions in challenging environments. This paper explores a notion of tour networks that is well suited to circ...

Expectation-Oriented Analysis and Design
A key challenge for agent-oriented software engineering is to develop and implement open systems composed of interacting autonomous agents. On the one hand, there is a need for pe...
