Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are generally composed of a large number of battery operated nodes with limited capacities. Therefore, a main challenge in the management of a WSN is how to reduce the energy consumption while maintaining a good quality of the sensed data. Artificial intelligence techniques like multiagent coalition formation can help on this. In this paper we propose an algorith...

This paper focuses on market-like coordination mechanisms in Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) and business planning has been chosen as the application area. Several fundamental criteria are derived in order to evaluate marketlike coordination mechanisms. The central criterion is the efficient allocation of jobs to agents. Assuming a relationship between classes of operational planning problems and cer...

The basal ganglia may be involved in bimanual co-ordination. Parkinson's disease (which impairs basal ganglia output) is clinically reported to cause difficulties in the performance of co-ordinated bimanual movements. Nevertheless, any bimanual co-ordination difficulties may be task specific, as experimental observations are equivocal. To infer the role of the basal ganglia in co-ordinating the...

Our objective is to assess whether dynamics hinder or assist coordination in a game with strategic complementarities. We study two dynamic aspects: different agents make decisions at different points in time; and extra information about a payoff-relevant state of nature becomes available over time. We find that the dynamic resolution of information matters most for uniqueness of equilibrium. Th...
