چکیده

We present a global methodology for the design of agent societies that takes the organisational perspective as starting point and specifies the development steps for the design and development of an agent-based system for a particular domain. So far, most agent-oriented design methodologies haven’t considered the influence of the social organisation model on the functionality and objectives of the agent society. Our approach is to provide a generic frame that directly relates to the organisational perception of the problem. Existing methodologies can be used for the development and modelling of each step.

Toward an Organization: Oriented Design Methodology for Agent Societies

In this chapter, we present a framework for the design of agent societies that considers the influence of social organizational aspects on the functionality and objectives of the agent society and specifies the development steps for the design and development of an agent-based system for a particular domain. Our approach will provide a generic frame that directly relates to the organizational p...

Translating Agent Perception Computations into Environmental Processes in MABS A means for integrating GPU programming within usual agent-based simulation platforms

Multi-Agent Based Simulations (MABS) relies on modeling the behavior of individual entities and their interactions in a virtual environment. Nowadays, MABS are used for studying various complex systems such as crowds, animal societies, ecosystems, traffic behaviors or the Market. So MABS are experimental research tools that contribute to our understanding of the mechanisms embedded in these com...

Conference Models to Bridge Micro and Macro Studies of Science

We propose using community-centered analyses and agent-based models of scientific gatherings such as conferences, symposia and workshops as a way to understand how scientific practices evolve and transition between local, community, and systems levels in science. We suggest using robotics as a case study of global, cross-cultural, interdisciplinary scientific practice. What is needed is a set o...

Towards Dynamic Reorganization of Agent Societies

In this paper, which is exploratory in nature, we discuss reorganization issues in agent societies. We are interested in how and why organizations change, and how can reorganization be done dynamically, with minimal interference from the system designer. It is evident that changes in the environment trigger reorganization, but in which situations do agents decide to modify their behavior, and w...

Modelling Agent Societies: Co-ordination Frameworks and Institutions

Organisations can be defined as a set of entities regulated by mechanisms of social order and created by more or less autonomous actors to achieve common goals. Multi-agent systems are a natural choice to design organisational systems due to the proactive and autonomous behaviour of agents. However, in business environments it is necessary to consider the behaviour of the global system and the ...
