This paper presents a generic and configurable model of an electronic informer to assist the evaluation for agent-based interactive systems. In order to propose this model, the current state of the art concerning architectures used for traditional interactive systems is presented, along with that for agent-based interactive systems. In this article, we propose an agent-oriented architecture tha...

Statistical Inference Utilizing Agent Based Models

Patient recruitment for clinical trials is expensive and has been a significant challenge, with many trials not achieving their recruitment goals. One method that shows promise for improving recruitment is the use of interactive prompts that inform practitioners of patient eligibility for clinical trials during consultation. This paper presents the ePCRN-IDEA recruitment system, which utilises ...

Cholera is an intestinal disease and is characterized by diarrhea and severe dehydration. While cholera has mainly been eliminated in regions that can provide clean water, adequate hygiene and proper sanitation; it remains a constant threat in many parts of Africa and Asia. Within this paper, we develop an agent-based model that explores the spread of cholera in the Dadaab refugee camp in Kenya...

• Produces optimized non-uniform set of speed levels • Enables dynamic, traffic-responsive grouping • Reduces transit times and attack rates compared to the existing group transit scheme with fixed schedules and uniform speed levels Randomized Transit Routing • Randomizes vessel transit routes to make them maximally unpredictable and reduces attack rates • Utilizes the transit game model (twopl...

In this article an agent-based architecture in which cooperation is regulated by contracts is proposed as a flexible approach to dynamic shop floor re-engineering. It describes the dynamic and flexible co-operation of manufacturing agents, representing manufacturing resources, and how they can be created from a generic agent template. Agents behaviour and contract types and structure are discus...
