Systems composed of interacting autonomous agents offer a promising software
engineering approach for developing applications in complex domains. However, this …

While multi-agent systems seem to provide a good basis for building complex software
systems, this paper points out some of the drawbacks of classical “agent centered” multi …

Abstract A Process for Agent Societies Specification and Implementation (PASSI) is a step-
by-step requirement-to-code methodology for designing and developing multi-agent …

Electronic markets, dispute resolution and negotiation protocols are three types of
application domains that can be viewed as open agent societies. Key characteristics of such …

A multi-agent system based distributed EMS (energy management system) is proposed in
this paper to perform optimal energy allocation and management for grids comprising of …

Multiple agent-oriented methodologies has been introduced in recent years, although only
partial evaluations of these have been offered. As a result, it is difficult to select a …

Multiagent systems have become popular over the last few years for building complex,
adaptive systems in a distributed, heterogeneous setting. Multiagent systems tend to be …

Organizations are increasingly looking to adopt the Internet of Things (IoT) to collect the data
required for data‐driven decision‐making. IoT might yield many benefits for asset …

The design of multi-agent systems is different from similar problems because the concept of
agent involves the notions of autonomy and intelligence. As a consequence agentbased …

Various agent-oriented methodologies and metamodels exist to design and develop
multiagent systems (MAS) in an abstract manner. Frequently, these frameworks specialise …
