Abstract-- Multi-agent system is a rapidly developing research area with strong support from both civilian and military applications. One of the essential problems in multi-agent s...
Coalition formation is a key problem in automated negotiation among self-interested agents, and other multiagent applications. A coalition of agents can sometimes accomplish thing...
In this paper, we investigate Reinforcement learning (RL) in multi-agent systems (MAS) from an evolutionary dynamical perspective. Typical for a MAS is that the environment is not ...

Theperformanceof individual agents in a group dependscritically on the quality of information available to it about local and global goals and resources. In general it is assumed ...
We introduce mCP nets, an extension of the CP net formalism to model and handle the qualitative and conditional preferences of multiple agents. We give a number of different seman...

The individual agents that interact in a multi-agent system typically exist along a continuum ranging from heavyweight cognitive agents (often of the "BDI" type) to light...

In this paper, we propose a framework for modelling agent organizations, OMNI, that allows the balance of global organizational requirements with the autonomy of individual agents...
Many agent-based systems rely for their effectiveness on the intelligence of individual agents, and interaction among agents is required simply to coordinate these individually com...
