Inaccessibility in multi-agent systems
IEEE/WIC International Conference on Intelligent Agent Technology, 2003. IAT 2003., 2004In standard situations, agents in a multi-agent community need to communicate each other to accomplish cooperation and coordination of joint activities. Normally it is expected that each agent can contact any other using a reliable communication infrastructure. Often one has to think about situations when a communication subsystem becomes disintegrated

Survivability of multi-agent systems
Proceedings of the fourth international joint conference on Autonomous agents and multiagent systems, 2005The survivability of a large scale Distributed Multi-Agent Systems (DMAS) functioning in dynamic and hostile environments is a significant design and run-time challenge. Delivering the correct proportion of performance, robustness and security is vital to the survivability of a complex adaptive system such as the DMAS.

Complex systems call for a hierarchical description. Analogously, the engineering of non-trivial MASs (multiagent systems) requires principles and mechanisms for a multi-layered description, which could be used by MAS designers to provide different levels of abstraction over MASs.

Personalization in Multi-Agent Systems
IEEE/WIC/ACM International Conference on Intelligent Agent Technology, 2006In this paper we study the aspects of the human-MAS interaction found in organizational applications based on MAS. The increasing number of MAS applications inside organizations introduces a basic problem: how should the user interact with such systems?

Innovations in multi-agent systems
Journal of Network and Computer Applications, 2007This paper outlines an abridged history of agents as a guide for the reader to understand the trends and directions of future agent design. This description includes how agent technologies have developed using increasingly sophisticated techniques. It also indicates the transition of formal programming languages into object-oriented programming and how

Programming multi-agent systems
The Knowledge Engineering Review, 2005PROMAS (Programming Multi-Agent Systems) is an AgentLink technical forum that aims to bring together the researchers and practitioners from both academia and industry to discuss the problems related to the development of multi-agent systems and to evaluate the existing proposals and results.

Semantics in Multi-agent Systems
2012In a large scale, open and distributed environment, interoperability is a key issue which requires a formal definition of the semantics of data model, processes, and knowledge. In this respect, conforming to standards is a first step towards enabling interoperation of autonomous systems.

Abstractions of Multi-agent Systems
2007With the recent development of many model-checkers for the temporal logic of knowledge, abstraction techniques are necessary to increase the size of the systems that can be verified. In this paper, we introduce several abstraction techniques for interpreted systems and we prove several preservation results.

Consensus in multi-agent systems
Wiley Encyclopedia of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, 2016Many cooperative behaviors of multi-agent teams emerge from local interactions among the agents, where an agent interacts with a few “adjacent” teammates, but has no information about the remaining agents. For instance, the selforganization of many biological populations – including swarms of insects, flocks of birds, and schools of fish – are based on

A Multi-agent System for Microgrids
2004This paper presents the capabilities offered by multiagent system technology in the operation of a microgrid. A microgrid is a new type of power system, which is formed by the interconnection of small, modular generation to low voltage distribution systems.
