Multi-Agent Systems: A Survey

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
Multi-agent systems (MASs) have received tremendous attention from scholars in different disciplines, including computer science and civil engineering, as a means to solve complex problems by subdividing them into smaller tasks.

A Review of Agent-Based Programming for Multi-Agent Systems

open access: yesComputers, 2021
Intelligent and autonomous agents is a subarea of symbolic artificial intelligence where these agents decide, either reactively or proactively, upon a course of action by reasoning about the information that is available about the world (including the ...

Asymptotic consensus of hybrid multi-agent systems considering network attacks [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
This paper focuses on the problem of active defense and achieving asymptotic consensus control in hybrid multi-agent systems under network attacks. Considering the influence of Byzantine nodes, on the basis of the theory of mimic defense, a deep dynamic ...

A Deeper Look at Autonomous Vehicle Ethics: An Integrative Ethical Decision-Making Framework to Explain Moral Pluralism

open access: yesFrontiers in Robotics and AI, 2021
The autonomous vehicle (AV) is one of the first commercialized AI-embedded robots to make autonomous decisions. Despite technological advancements, unavoidable AV accidents that result in life-and-death consequences cannot be completely eliminated.

Formation Tracking Control and Obstacle Avoidance of Unicycle-Type Robots Guaranteeing Continuous Velocities

open access: yesSensors, 2021
In this paper, we addressed the problem of controlling the position of a group of unicycle-type robots to follow in formation a time-varying reference avoiding obstacles when needed. We propose a kinematic control scheme that, unlike existing methods, is

On cooperation in multi-agent systems [PDF]

open access: yesThe Knowledge Engineering Review, 1997
Cooperation is often presented as one of the key concepts which differentiates multi-agent systems from other related disciplines such as distributed computing, object-oriented systems, and expert systems. However, it is a concept whose precise usage in agent-based systems is at best unclear and at worst highly inconsistent. Given the centrality of the

Detecting the driver nodes of temporal networks

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2023
Detecting the driver nodes of complex networks has garnered significant attention recently to control complex systems to desired behaviors, where nodes represent system components and edges encode their interactions.

Negotiation in multi-agent systems [PDF]

open access: yesThe Knowledge Engineering Review, 1999
In systems composed of multiple autonomous agents, negotiation is a key form of interaction that enables groups of agents to arrive at a mutual agreement regarding some belief, goal or plan, for example. Particularly because the agents are autonomous and cannot be assumed to be benevolent, agents must influence others to convince them to act in certain

Overview of Software Agent Platforms Available in 2023

open access: yesInformation, 2023
Agent-based computing remains an active field of research with the goal of building (semi-)autonomous software for dynamic ecosystems. Today, this task should be realized using dedicated, specialized frameworks.
