Abstract Development of multi-agent systems is a complex process during which use of adequate development tools is essential. This paper focuses on debugging of multi-agent systems. A survey of existing multi-agent systems development tools is presented first.

Voting in Multi-Agent Systems*
The Computer Journal, 2006Voting is an essential element of mechanism design for multi-agent systems, and by extension applications built on such systems, which includes ad hoc networks, virtual organizations, and decision support tools implementing online deliberative assemblies.

Universality in Multi-Agent Systems
International Joint Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems, 2004Much research in MAS explores how refinements to one agent?s reasoning can improve system performance. Sometimes, aspects of a system?s behavior are independent of individual agents? algorithms. Inspired by statistical physics, we term this phenomenon "universality": systems whose elements differ widely may have common emergent features.

The paper deals with distributed planning in a Multi-Agent System (MAS) constituted by several intelligent agents each one has to interact with the other autonomous agents. The problem faced is how to ensure a distributed planning through the cooperation in our multi-agent system.

We have developed the concept of Minimal Multi-Agent Systems (MMAS) to study the organisational dynamics of multi agent systems (MAS) at an abstract level. We have kept the model deliberately minimal to allow for the quantitative and unambiguous analysis of such systems.

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?
