: Electronic institutions (EIs) have been proposed as a means of regulating open agent societies. EIs define the rules of the game in agent societies by fixing what agents are perm...
In this paper we present the Electronic Institutions Development Environment (EIDE) to support the engineering of multiagent systems as Electronic Institutions. An electronic inst...
Abstract. Today, the concept of an environment for multi-agent systems is in its pioneering phase. Consequently, the development of supporting software technologies is still rather...
In this paper we propose a methodology for the construction of 3D electronic institutions. 3D electronic institutions are normative environments where software and human agents ca...

Virtual Institutions are Virtual Worlds with normative regulation of participants’ interactions. This paradigm is based on normative multiagent systems and is technologically su...
We propose a logic-based rendition of electronic institutions – these are means to specify open agent organisations. We employ a simple notation based on first-order logic and s...
The design and development of open multi-agent systems (MAS) is a key aspect in agent research. We advocate that they can be realised as electronic institutions. In this paper we ...
The regulation of multiagent systems may be approached from different stand-points. In this paper I will take the perspective of using a certain type of devices, electronic instit...
In this paper we propose the use of 3D Virtual Worlds for the visualization of Electronic Institutions. We show how 3D representation helps to open Electronic Institutions to huma...

Electronic Institutions are regulated environments populated by autonomous software agents that perform tasks on behalf of users. 3D Electronic Institutions extend EI with 3D Virt...
