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.

Load Balancing in Cloud Computing Systems Through Formation of Coalitions in a Spatially Generalized Prisoner's Dilemma Game

TL;DR: This paper proposes a novel approach to dynamic load balancing problem in cloud computing systems based on the phenomena of self-organization in a game- theoretical spatially generalized Prisoner's Dilemma model defined on the two-dimensional cellular automata space.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pareto-optimal algorithm in bilateral automated negotiation

TL;DR: This paper presents the maximum greedy trade-offs (MGT) algorithm that generate offers at any aspiration-level in O(n) with assuming that the order of greedy choices is given, otherwise the complexity will be O( n bg n).

Quality control agents for adaptive visual inspection in production lines

TL;DR: The integration of quality control stations into the GRACE MAS will become autonomous agents, capable of self-reconfiguration according to the needs of the production to improve shop floor efficiency while maintaining the same (and possibly higher) quality level for the manufactured products.

A Formal Approach for Designing Distributed Self-Adaptive Systems

TL;DR: A set of formally specified templates for the specification and verification of self- Adaptive behaviors of a family of distributed self-adaptive systems based on the MAPE-K reference model are contributed with the aim of supporting designers.
