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.

Comparing the Effects of Disturbances in Self-adaptive Systems - A Generalised Approach for the Quantification of Robustness

TL;DR: A novel quantification method for robustness is presented that provides the basis to compare different control strategies in similar conditions and allows for higher autonomy of systems in order to react appropriately to disturbances and dynamics in the environmental conditions.
Dissertation

Contributions à l’estimation robuste et à la commande prédictive robuste par méthodes ensemblistes

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a method for the estimation of the P-rayon d'un zonotope in order to reduce the number of intervalles and perturbations bornees.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Spectrum handoff algorithm for mobile cognitive radio users based on agents' negotiation

TL;DR: A new approach for handoff management including a spectrum sharing solution and a spectrum handoff decision mechanism based on multi-agent negotiation to enable cognitive radio terminals switching towards the best available spectrum band, while respecting users' applications requirements and environmental conditions is presented.

Agent-based simulation of home energy management system in residential demand response

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.
