Abstract The increasingly complex and dynamic nature of contemporary markets demands that a business engages in an ongoing dialogue with all aspects of its environment, including o...
A web site presents a graph–like spatial structure composed of pages connected by hyperlinks. This structure may represent an environment in which situated agents associated to v...
In this talk I present recent research in swarm robotics, the discipline that studies robotic systems composed of swarms of robots tightly interacting and cooperating to reach thei...
Multiagent systems for mobile and pervasive computing should extensively exploit contextual information both to adapt to user needs and to enable autonomic behavior. This raises th...

One motivation for many agent-based models is to predict the future. The nonlinearity of agent interactions in most non-trivial domains mean that the usefulness of such prediction...

Complexity of near future and even nowadays applications is exponentially increasing. In order to tackle the design of such complex systems, being able to engineer self-organising ...
Behind the curtains at check-in desks in airports hide some of the most complex material handling systems, which manage to get your bag transported to the correct departure gate of...
We investigate the application of a logic-based framework representing an agent environment as a composite structure that evolves over time. Such a complex structure contains the i...
Although there is a huge amount of work and valuable proposals about agent oriented software engineering, it seems that the paradigm has not been fully accepted yet by software ind...
