Agent-based simulation of home energy management system in residential demand response
Zhanle Wang,Raman Paranjape +1 more
TL;DR: The proposed model can be a test-bed to evaluate various demand response strategies and technologies and demonstrates the effectiveness of the home energy management system in the residential demand response implementation.

A Survey: Towards Understanding Emergent Behavior in Complex Engineered Systems
TL;DR: This research explores the current state of-the-art on emergence, and identifies possible gaps in the research literature, and presents different approaches used by engineers to deal with emergent behavior in different research areas such as Multiagent Systems (MAS), System of Systems (SOS), and Emergence Engineering.
Dynamic Agent Allocation for Large-Scale Multi-Agent Applications
Myeong-Wuk Jang,Gul Agha +1 more
TL;DR: This paper proposes two dynamic agent allocation mechanisms for large-scale multi-agent applications that aim to minimize agent communication cost, while that of the other mechanism is to prevent overloaded computer nodes from negatively affecting overall performance.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Large-Scale Simulator for Global Data Infrastructure Optimization
TL;DR: The goal is to provide data center operators a tool that allows understanding and predicting the consequences of the deployment of new network topologies, hardware configurations or software applications in a global data infrastructure, without affecting the service.
Journal ArticleDOI
Context-dependent combination of sensor information in Dempster---Shafer theory for BDI
TL;DR: In this paper, a context-dependent strategy originally defined for possibility theory can be adapted to DS theory, and the notion of largely partially maximal consistent subsets (LPMCSes) is used to characterise the context for when to use Dempster's original rule of combination and for resort to an alternative.

Journal ArticleDOI
Statistical physics of social dynamics
TL;DR: In this article, a wide list of topics ranging from opinion and cultural and language dynamics to crowd behavior, hierarchy formation, human dynamics, and social spreading are reviewed and connections between these problems and other, more traditional, topics of statistical physics are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Developing multiagent systems: The Gaia methodology
TL;DR: It is argued that a multiagent system can naturally be viewed and architected as a computational organization, and the appropriate organizational abstractions that are central to the analysis and design of such systems are identified.

Programming Multi-Agent Systems in AgentSpeak using Jason (Wiley Series in Agent Technology)
TL;DR: The Jason Agent Programming Language as discussed by the authors is a programming language based on the BDI Agent Model that allows to define simulated environments and communicate with multiple agents in a BDI agent language.
Book ChapterDOI
Computational Intelligence: An Introduction
TL;DR: The general public becomes rapidly jaded with such ‘bold predictions’ that fail to live up to their original hype, and which ultimately render the zealots’ promises as counter-productive.
Journal ArticleDOI
Agent-based systems for manufacturing
TL;DR: The evolution of agent technologies and manufacturing will probably proceed hand in hand and the former can receive real challenges from the latter, which will have more and more benefits in applying agent technologies, presumably together with well-established or emerging approaches of other disciplines.
