This contribution defines a metrics and proposes a solution for the problem of agents inaccessibility in multi-agent systems. We define the stand-in pattern for knowledge mainten...
In this paper we describe a multi-agent simulation called the Human Agent Virtual Environment (or HAVE). HAVE is a test bed to explore agent-environment interaction in multiagent ...
The algorithm we present in this paper aims to optimally distribute and connect the community of loosely coupled middle agents ensuring communication accessibility in a dynamic, i...
In this paper, we describe the unique security issues involved in healthcare domains. These have been addressed to the needs of the HealthAgents project. In the proposed approach,...
In most of the existing approaches to the design of multiagent systems, there is no clear way in which to relate organisational and normative structures to the model of the enviro...
