چکیده

This paper presents norms and ontologies’ definition for actions performed by agents. This approach defines that regulations have a semantic support provided by an ontology, specially designed and built for it. This ontology is a generic one and need to be extended for specific domains. An ontology for the urban traffic domain was extended and instantiated in an urban traffic simulator system, developed as a case study. The generic and extended ontologies are also presented in this paper.

Norm Defeasibility in an Institutional Normative Framework

Normative environments have been proposed to regulate agent interaction in open multi-agent systems. However, most approaches rely on pre-imposed regulations that agents are subject to. Taking a different stance, we focus on a normative framework that assists agents in establishing by themselves their own commitment norms. With that aim in mind, a model of norm defeasibility is presented that e...

Regulating Open Multi-Agent Systems with DynaCROM

This paper presents our ongoing work for dynamic contextual regulations in open multi-agent systems – called DynaCROM. DynaCROM is a straightforward method to smoothly apply and manage regulations in open multi-agent systems, enforcing customized compositions of contextual laws. DynaCROM is based on a top-down modeling of contextual laws, on a normative meta-ontology for laws semantics and on a...

Normative Systems Represented as Hybrid Knowledge Bases

Normative systems have been advocated as an effective tool to regulate interaction in multi-agent systems. Logic programming rules intuitively correspond to conditional norms, and their semantics is based on the closed world assumption, which allows default negation, often used in norms. However, there are cases where the closed world assumption is clearly not adequate, and others that require ...

Sweetening Regulated Open Multi-Agent Systems with Support for Agents to Reason about Laws

Inspired by the Tim Berners-Lee’s vision of a Semantic Web, this work aims to present an approach to regulate open Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) based on ontologies plus layers of logic and rules for data inference. In our approach, a top-down modeling of laws is designed for regulating an open MAS. We propose to regulate agents’ actions based on four levels of abstractions: Environment laws, organ...

Contractual Agent Societies: Negotiated shared context and social control in open multi-agent systems

Information systems for supporting the fluid organizations of the 21 century must be correspondingly open and agile, able to automatically configure themselves out of heterogeneous system components, accommodate the dynamic exit and entry of hitherto unknown participants and maintain system stability in the face of limited trust. This paper introduces the concept of Contractual Agent Societies ...
