Abstract:
In this paper, a simplified simulation approach of the Agent Petri Nets (APN) model is proposed to facilitate and accelerate the development and evaluation of system models. The main idea is to apply the new trends of model-driven approach to the design of specific tools and provide facilities to evaluate quickly the developed system. The CINCO tooling suite is used to full generation of a specific graphical modelling tool for the APN model. The simulation code is simply added to the generated code. This tool allows users to build models based on Agent Petri Nets formalism and at the same time

A framework for building EDM collaborative manufacturing system using multi-agent technology to support organizations characterized by physically distributed, enterprise-wide, heterogeneous intelligent manufacturing system over Internet is proposed. According to the characteristics of agile EDM collaborative manufacturing system(AEDMCMS), the agent technology is combined with Petri net in order to analyze the model. Based on the basic Petri Net, the definition is extended and the Agent-oriented Petri net (APN) is proposed. AEDMCM is turned into the model of Petri Net which is suitable to the a

Abstract:
Nested Petri nets (NP-nets) are an extension of Petri net formalism within the “netswithin-nets” approach, when tokens in a marking are Petri nets, which have an autonomous behavior and are synchronized with the system net. The formalism of NP-nets allows modeling multi-level multi-agent systems with dynamic structure in a natural way. Currently, there is no tool for supporting NP-nets simulation and analysis. The paper proposes the translation of NP-nets into Colored Petri nets and the use of CPN Tools as a virtual machine for NP-nets modeling, simulation and automatic verification.

Abstract:
In the early two-thousands, Recursive Petri nets have been introduced in order to model distributed planning of multi-agent systems for which counters and recursivity were necessary. Although Recursive Petri nets strictly extend Petri nets and context-free grammars, most of the usual problems (reachability, coverability, finiteness, boundedness and termination) were known to be solvable by using non-primitive recursive algorithms. For almost all other extended Petri nets models containing a stack, the complexity of coverability and termination are unknown or strictly larger than EXPSPACE. In c

Open distributed multi-agent systems are gaining interest in the academic community and in industry. In such open settings, agents are often coordinated using standardized agent conversation protocols. The representation of such protocols (for analysis, validation, monitoring, etc) is an important aspect of multi-agent applications. Recently, Petri nets have been shown to be an interesting approach to such representation, and radically different approaches using Petri nets have been proposed. However, their relative strengths and weaknesses have not been examined. Moreover, their scalability a

The proposed cooperative search model and Petri net model facilitate the search operation considering the constraints mentioned in the paper.

Coordination is an important aspect in developing distributed systems. While in silicon-based agents, i.e., mechanical robotics, designing individual-level behavior that may emerge into one global function is a typical approach to such systems, in DNA-based agents, programming of each individual’s behavior still remains a challenge, as they are based on chemical reactions. These reactions occur immediately after all reactants have been mixed into a solution, which introduces challenges in logical control.

How agents accomplish a goal task in a multi-agent system is usually specified by multi-agent plans built from basic actions (e.g. operators) of which the agents are capable.

Making sure that the plans are reliable and fit for the purpose for which they are designed is a critical problem with this approach.

A new kind of malware called Mirai is spreading like wildfire. Mirai is characterized by targeting Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Since IoT devices are increasing explosively, it is not realistic to manage their vulnerability by human-wave tactics. This paper proposes a new approach that uses a white-hat worm to fight malware. The white-hat worm is an extension of an IoT worm called Hajime and introduces lifespan and secondary infectivity (the ability to infect a device infected by Mirai). The proposed white-hat worm was expressed as a formal model with agent-oriented Petri nets called PN 2

Abstract:
A novel scheme for simulating networked agent systems is presented. In this approach, the system is composed of identical communicating agents, which have multi-role capabilities in such a manner that they can perform diverse tasks, according to a given execution context. The agent’s behavior is modeled using a timed hybrid Petri net ( THPN) whose evolution, valid for all the agents, is computed off-line using Matlab. The agents are interconnected and simulated in a Java platform using the JADE middle-ware.

Abstract:
Automated Manufacturing Systems (AMS) consisting of many cooperating devices incorporated into multiple cooperating production lines, sharing common resources, represent industrial Multi-Agent Systems (MAS). Deadlocks may occur during operation of such MAS. It is necessary to deal with deadlocks (more precisely said, to prevent them) to ensure the correct behavior of AMS. For this purpose, among other methods, methods based on Petri nets (PN) are used too. Because AMS are very often described by PN models, two PN-based methods will be presented here, namely based on (i) PN place invariants (P-

Abstract:
Reliability estimation of mobile agent-based systems remains a difficult task due to the characteristics of mobile agents that include distributed and asynchronous execution, autonomy, and mobility. In this paper we present an analytical approach to estimate the reliability of mobile agent-based systems. We define the reliability of a mobile agent in terms of the processor execution time required to perform agent's tasks at each processing node and the transmission or communication time needed to transfer the agent from one processing node to another via a network to complete its mission.

Abstract:
Cooperative Information Systems (CIS) become relevant to integrate different kinds of systems so as to work collaboratively for a common goal. CIS are considered by nature as dynamic systems, and one of the most difficult problems is how to model and control multiple simultaneous interactions among agents in a friendly way. Consequently, expressiveness becomes a problem related to the representation so far, the similar systems cope neither with the problem of expressiveness nor with multiple interactions in a satisfactory way. It is proposed an integrated methodology based on Coloured Petri Ne
