Individualization of Goods and Services: Towards a Logistics Knowledge Infrastructure for Agile Supply Chains.

TL;DR: This work studies supply chains from a knowledge-based coordination perspective and regard logistics as the guiding conceptualization, and reports about applying parts of this infrastructure to coordination problems in three selected case studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Towards an Agent Computing Platform for Distributed Computing on Satellites

TL;DR: A novel agent computing platform (ACP) is proposed utilizing technologies from the multi-processor and agent middleware fields for real-time Java networking and mobile ad hoc network-based distributed computing applications at a minimal overhead to existing systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

An Approach to Automated Fusion System Design and Adaptation

TL;DR: This article encompasses the fusion system configuration and adaptation as well as communication aspects and proposes an approach, which relies on a network of self-descriptive intelligent sensor nodes, for the automatic design and update of sensor and information fusion systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cross-clouds services autonomic management approach based on self-organizing multi-agent technology

TL;DR: An approach based on self‐organizing multi‐agent system to achieving cross‐clouds services management, including the service provision at the tenant‐end and services aggregation at the cloud‐end is proposed.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Implementing Virtual Pheromones in BDI Robots Using MQTT and Jason (Short Paper)

TL;DR: Jason, a Java-based interpreter for an extended version of AgentSpeak, provides a high-level modelling and execution environment for multi-agent systems, and MQTT, a messaging infrastructure for the Internet-of-Things, allows the implementation of stigmergic algorithms in ahigh-level declarative language.

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.
