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.

Enhancing NetLogo to Simulate BDI Communicating Agents

TL;DR: It is argued that NetLogo meets most of the requirements that suit the requirements of a simulation platform for complex agent and multi-agent systems, and is presented as an implementation in which agents cooperate under a Contract Net protocol.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multiple energy carrier optimisation with intelligent agents

TL;DR: In this article, an approach for controlling multiple energy carriers, including electricity (AC or DC), heat, natural gas and hydrogen, with the objective to minimize the overall cost and/or emissions, while adhering to technical and commercial constraints, such as network limits and market contracts, is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Algorithms for automated live migration of virtual machines

TL;DR: Two live migration strategies for load balancing, "pull" and "push", are investigated and it is discovered that each strategy comes out as "best" under different types of workload.

Applications of Multi-Agent Systems in Smart Grids: A survey

TL;DR: The different platforms used for the implementation of MAS for the control and operation of smart grids are presented and the MAS' applications in SG available in the literature are also developed in this paper.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Parallel and distributed simulation from many cores to the public cloud

TL;DR: This tutorial paper will firstly review some basic simulation concepts and then introduce the parallel and distributed simulation techniques in view of some new challenges of today and tomorrow, and proposes a new approach based on multi-agent systems for the simulation of complex systems.
