Generalized Partial Global Planning (GPGP) and its associated TÆMS hierarchical task
network representation were developed as a domain-independent framework for …

Real-time control has become increasingly important as technologies are moved from the
lab into real world situations. The complexity associated with these systems increases as …

Ψ is a novel algebraic language for the specification of agents, such as BDI agents, which
employ a sense-compute-act computation cycle and stored plan execution as the basis of …

Control for agents situated in multi-agent systems is a complex problem. This is particularly
true in hard, open, dynamic environments where resource, privacy, bandwidth, and …

If we are to enable agents to handle increasingly greater levels of complexity, it is necessary
to equip them with mechanisms that support greater degrees of autonomy. This is especially …

The development of multi-agent systems (MAS) implies considering both the social and
individual levels of these systems. However, the elements in these levels are not necessarily …

Within the context of bi-lateral negotiation, a problem that has received little attention is that
of identifying negotiation opponents in situations in which the consequences of conflict and …

An improved multi-agent simulation model is presented in this paper for modeling resource
allocation strategies in wireless communications. It is based on a novel agent negotiation …

The simulation model adaptability to real network behavior is the key concept in wireless
communications. In a cellular network, many procedures such as call admission, hand-off …

Simulation technology constitutes the most critical factor for designing and evaluating
complex wireless communication systems. Several modelling methodologies have been …
