Agent-based systems have the capability to fuse information from many distributed sources
and create better plans faster. This feature makes agent-based systems naturally suitable to …

Robotics is an area of research in which the paradigm of Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) can
prove to be highly useful. Multi-Agent Systems come in the form of cooperative robots in a …

A novel efficient agent‐based method for scheduling network batch processes in the
process industry is proposed. The agent‐based model is based on the resource‐task …

Abstract Multi-agent Systems (MASs) are one of the main fields of distributed systems. MASs
are based on autonomous entities that cooperate obtaining emergent behaviors, and can be …

Purpose: Technological innovations and frameworks that provide a framework for unification

This paper presents a new middleware, dubbed IceHMS specifically designed to support the
development of distributed manufacturing control systems requiring flexibility. IceHMS has …

In this work we discuss the advances in the development of an existing agent platform [20]
taking in mind the domain of intelligent surveillance. We have paid special attention to key …

Since their first developments, traditional video surveillance systems have been designed to
monitor environments. However, these systems have several limitations to automatically …

In traditional business, negotiation is viewed as a long process, which has resulted in the
