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.

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.

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.

Managing ontology versions with a distributed blackboard architecture

TL;DR: A distributed, “pluggable” blackboard architecture for managing different ontology versions is described, which allows existing environments for ontology design to be naturally extended with versioning capabilities with little or no overhead.

Legal modelling and reasoning using institutions

TL;DR: This paper presents a methodology to support legal reasoning using institutions—systems that specify the normative behaviour of participants—and a corresponding computational model, and shows how it provides a useful separation between the identification of real world actions, if and how they affect the legal model and how consequences within theLegal model can be specified and verified.

Architectural design of a distributed application with autonomic quality requirements

TL;DR: This paper discusses and illustrates the architectural design of a complex real-world distributed application with autonomic quality requirements, and presents an architecture with autonomous entities (agents) for managing warehouse logistics.

Modeling User Expectations & Satisfaction for SaaS Applications Using Multi-agent Negotiation

TL;DR: The results of the evaluation process show that automated negotiation provides a useful platform to empower the user choices, fulfill her expectations, and maximize her satisfaction hereby outperforming centralized approaches where the provider acts in a unilateral manner.
