This paper describes our efforts in creating SimEd, a simulation of the education system. The longterm aim of this work is to be able to model the types of interactions and interp...
In this paper we present an agent-oriented modeling language, called MAS-ML, and an approach for mapping its diagrams into Java implementations. MAS-ML extends the UML meta-model ...

In a cooperative multi-agent system that is situated in an evolving environment, agents need to dynamically adjust their negotiation attitudes towards different agents in order to...
This paper proposes a new multiagent planning approach to coordination synthesis that views distributed agents as discrete-event processes. The connection between discreteevent co...
We explore strategies to resolve conflicts in multiagent environments that arise when agents compete for resources they need for survival and procreation. As expected, social str...
As a paradigm for coordinating cooperative agents in dynamic environments, teamwork has been shown to be capable of leading to flexible and robust behavior. However, when we appl...

The process of pair partnership formation is an important infrastructure for many plausible MAS applications. Each agent evaluates potential partner agents, where each potential m...
Most existing work in agent programming assumes an execution model where an agent has a knowledge base (KB) about the current state of the world, and makes decisions about what to ...
Argumentation-based negotiation approaches have been proposed to present realistic negotiation contexts. This paper presents a novel Bayesian network based argumentation and decis...
