Modelling of the multi-agent systems through specific DEDS methods and the Erlang functional language
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper contains an evaluation of the modeling multi-agent systems methods in the context of discrete event dynamic systems in technical and industrial settings. Also the ease of implementing solutions of common types of dynamic discrete models in Erlang language is considered and is showing that programming in Erlang / OTP is more suitable for multi-agent systems design compared to other platforms. Arguments for using Erlang for programming of conversational communication systems in multi-agent systems are presented. Key-Words: agent, multi-agent system, Petri–nets, finit-state-machine, functional language, Erlang

eXAT: an Experimental Tool for Programming Multi-Agent Systems in Erlang
This paper describes a research experiment carried out at the University of Catania, aiming at testing and evaluating the applicability of the Erlang language in programming multiagent systems. Indeed, we noticed that programming tools for agents often require the programmer to write agent behavior by means an imperative language (such as Java) while the intelligent part has to written using a ...
متن کاملImplementation of an Erlang-Based Resource Holon for a Holonic Manufacturing Cell
The use of holonic control in reconfigurable manufacturing systems holds great advantages, such as reduction in complexity and cost, along with increased maintainability and reliability. This paper presents an implementation of holonic control using Erlang, a functional programming language. The paper shows how the functional components of a PROSA resource holon can be implemented through Erlan...
متن کاملCold standby redundancy optimization for nonrepairable series-parallel systems: Erlang time to failure distribution
In modeling a cold standby redundancy allocation problem (RAP) with imperfect switching mechanism, deriving a closed form version of a system reliability is too difficult. A convenient lower bound on system reliability is proposed and this approximation is widely used as a part of objective function for a system reliability maximization problem in the literature. Considering this lower bound do...
متن کاملA class of multi-agent discrete hybrid non linearizable systems: Optimal controller design based on quasi-Newton algorithm for a class of sign-undefinite hessian cost functions
In the present paper, a class of hybrid, nonlinear and non linearizable dynamic systems is considered. The noted dynamic system is generalized to a multi-agent configuration. The interaction of agents is presented based on graph theory and finally, an interaction tensor defines the multi-agent system in leader-follower consensus in order to design a desirable controller for the noted system. A...
متن کاملAdaptive Neural Network Method for Consensus Tracking of High-Order Mimo Nonlinear Multi-Agent Systems
This paper is concerned with the consensus tracking problem of high order MIMO nonlinear multi-agent systems. The agents must follow a leader node in presence of unknown dynamics and uncertain external disturbances. The communication network topology of agents is assumed to be a fixed undirected graph. A distributed adaptive control method is proposed to solve the consensus problem utilizing re...
