چکیده
We are concerned with the utility of social laws in a computational environment laws which guarantee the successful coexistence of multi ple programs and programmers In this paper we are interested in the o line design of social laws where we as designers must decide ahead of time on useful social laws In the rst part of this paper we sug gest the use of social laws in the domain of mobile robots and prove analytic results about the usefulness of this approach in that setting In the second part of this paper we present a general model of social law in a computational system and investigate some of its proper ties This includes a de nition of the basic computational problem involved with the design of multi agent systems and an investigation of the automatic synthesis of useful social laws in the framework of a model which refers explicitly to social laws This work was supported in part by a grant from the US Israel Binational Science Foundation

On computational social laws for dynamic non-homogeneous social structures
Approaches to the coordination of arti cial agents may be inspired by observations on human and other natural societies. On the other hand, the introduction and the analysis of general computationalmodels and mechanisms of coordination may shed light on the general theory of coordination. This paper extends a fundamental approach to the coordination of arti cial agent societies, the arti cial s...
متن کاملDetermination of Social Laws for Multi-Agent Mobilization
In previous work on arti cial social systems, social laws for multi-agent mobilization were hand-crafted for particular network structures. In this work, we introduce an algorithm for the automatic synthesis of social laws for multi-agent mobilization in any 2-connected graph environment. We introduce the notion of a graph routing and show that the problem of computing a useful social law can b...
متن کاملCan a Rational Agent Afford to be Affectless? A Formal Approach
In this article, we expose some of the issues raised by the critics of the neoclassical approach to rational agent modeling and we propose a formal approach for the design of arti cial rational agents that includes some of the functions of emotions found in the human system. We suggest that emotions and rationality are closely linked in the human mind (and in the body, for that matter) and, the...
متن کاملOn Social Laws for Artificial Agent Societies: Off-Line Design
We are concerned with the utility of social laws in a computational environment, laws which guarantee the successful coexistence of multiple programs and programmers. In this paper we are interested in the oo line design of social laws, where we as designers must decide ahead of time on useful social laws. In the rst part of this paper we suggest the use of social laws in the domain of mobile r...
متن کاملLearning to Speculate: Experiments with Arti cial and Real Agents
This paper employs an arti cial agent{based computational approach to understanding and designing laboratory environments in which to test Kiyotaki and Wright's search model of money. The behavioral rules of the arti cial agents are modeled on the basis of prior evidence from human subject experiments. Simulations of the arti cial agent{based model are conducted in two new versions of the Kiyot...
