Establishing Quality Requirements of Multi-Agent Projects

Requirements for Multi-Agent Systems

Autonomous agents are beginning to be used as a software paradigm, because of their potential to build more powerful and flexible complex systems. To achieve such benefits a standard definition of is agenthood is necessary. In doing so, agent-oriented software engineering will not only be able to develop standardised processes for building agent-based systems but also be able to better as evalu...

مدلسازی احساسات در سیستمهای multi-agent یادگیرنده

این پایان نامه به بررسی نقش مثبت یا منفی احساسات روی کارایی عامل های یادگیرنده در یک محیط multi-agent می پردازد. در این راستا مدلی برای عامل های یادگیرنده دارای احساس معرفی می شود. برای بررسی نقش احساسات، یک محیط فرضی multi-agent شبیه سازی شده و حالت های گوناگونی در آن نظر گرفته می شوند. در حالت نخست، کارایی عامل هایی بررسی می شود که دارای احساس نیستند و فقط قابلیت یادگیری دارند. در دومین حالت...

Establishing Global Properties of Multi-Agent Systems Via Local Laws

This paper is part of a long term research program on multiagent systems (MASs), based on the proposition that the interactions among the members of a large and heterogeneous system of autonomous agents need to be governed by a global and strictly enforced law ; and that such laws need to be local, so that they can be complied with at the locus of each agent—without having any direct informatio...

Deriving Multi-Agent Organisational Architectures from Requirements

Understanding and supporting the interaction between software requirements and architectures remains one of the challenging problems in software engineering research. Our aim is to be able to derive architectural models in concert with Multi-Agent System Requirements Specifications. In this paper we present a process to derive multi-agent systems architecture from requirements using social anal...
