Open MASs can be extremely dynamic due to heterogeneous agents that migrate among them to obtain resources or services not found locally. In order to prevent malicious actions and...
Abstract. In a setting where heterogeneous agents interact to accomplish a given set of goals, cooperation is of utmost importance, especially when agents cannot achieve their indi...
The need for new theoretical and experimental approaches to understand dynamic and heterogeneous behavior in complex economic and social systems is increasing recently. An approac...
A fundamental difficulty faced by groups of agents that work together is how to efficiently coordinate their efforts. This paper presents techniques that allow heterogeneous agent...
Interaction between heterogeneous agents can raise some problems since agents may not use the same models and concepts. Therefore, the use of some mechanisms to achieve interoperab...

This paper extends existing methods for information searching and sharing in large-scale, dynamic networks of agents, to deal with networks of heterogeneous agents: Agents that do...
A network of cooperating agents must be able to reach rough consensus on a set of topics for cooperation. With highly heterogeneous agents, however, incommensurable measures and i...
: This paper presents a method called "Situation Matching" that aids to improve cooperative tasks in heterogeneous multi-agent systems. The situation matching (SM) above ...
Abstract. The promise of agent-based systems is leading towards the development of autonomous, heterogeneous agents, designed by a variety of research/industrial groups and distrib...
