Tool support for the design of self-optimizing mechatronic multi-agent systems

TL;DR: This article presents how the required integration has been realized at the semantic level by extending the unified modeling language (UML), and at the tool level by integrating the CAE tool CAMeL and the CASE tool Fujaba real-time tool suite.
Dissertation

Multi-agent negotiation using trust and persuasion

TL;DR: A novel protocol and reasoning mechanism that agents can use to generate and evaluate persuasive elements, such as promises of future rewards, to support the offers they make during negotiation, which is shown to be the first reputation mechanism that implements individual rationality, incentive compatibility, and efficiency.

A General Methodology for Designing Self-Organizing Systems

TL;DR: A conceptual framework for speaking about self-organizing systems useful for designing and controlling systems developed to solve complex problems is presented.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

A neural-symbolic cognitive agent for online learning and reasoning

TL;DR: A novel cognitive agent model and architecture for online learning and reasoning that seeks to effectively represent, learn and reason in complex training environments and is capable of learning new hypotheses from observed data, and infer new beliefs based on these hypotheses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Systems approaches to influenza-virus host interactions and the pathogenesis of highly virulent and pandemic viruses.

TL;DR: It is shown how these approaches have revealed an uncontrolled inflammatory response as a contributor to the extreme virulence of the 1918 pandemic and avian H5N1 viruses, and how this response differs from that induced by the 2009 H1N1 virus responsible for the most recent influenza pandemic.

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.
