Abstract:
Autonomous agents perform on behalf of the user to achieve defined goals or objectives. They are situated in dynamic environment and are able to operate autonomously to achieve their goals. In a multiagent system, agents cooperate with each other to achieve a common goal. Testing of multiagent systems is a challenging task due to the autonomous and proactive behavior of agents. However, testing is required to build confidence into the working of a multiagent system. Prometheus methodology is a commonly used approach to design multiagents systems.

Agent-systems can bring important benefits especially in applications scenarios where highly distributed, autonomous, intelligence, self-organizing, and robust systems are required. Furthermore, the high levels of autonomy and self-organizations of agent systems provide excellent support for developments of systems in which dependability is essential. Both Ubiquitous Computing and Ambient Intelligence scenarios belong in this category. Unfortunately, the lack of appropriate security mechanisms, both their enforcement and usability, is hindering the application of this paradigm in real-world ap

 Multiagent Reinforcement Learning (RL) solves complex tasks that require coordination with other agents through autonomous exploration of the environment.

This survey provides a unifying view of the literature on knowledge reuse in multiagent RL. We define a taxonomy of solutions for the general knowledge reuse problem,

Abstract:
This study evaluates the potential of IoT-enabled adaptive traffic management systems for mitigating urban congestion, enhancing mobility, and reducing environmental impacts in densely populated cities. Using London as a case study, the research develops a multiagent simulation framework to assess the effectiveness of advanced traffic management strategies—including adaptive signal control and dynamic rerouting—under varied traffic scenarios. Unlike conventional models that rely on static or reactive approaches, this framework integrates real-time data from IoT-enabled sensors with predictive

This paper addresses the problem of controlling a heterogeneous system composed of multiple Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) for formation and containment maintenance. The proposed approach considers actuator time delay and, in addition to formation and containment, considers obstacle avoidance, and offers a robust navigation algorithm and uses a reliable middleware for data transmission and exchange. The methodology followed uses both flocking technique and modified L1 adaptive control to ensure the proper navigation and coordination while avoiding obs

With the increase in the power grid capacities of renewable sources of energy (RSE) and the implementation of measures and means to compensate for the dependence of their generation on natural conditions, the role and importance of RSE in electric power systems (EPS) is changing. RSE are real opportunity to decentralize electricity generation and provide power supply systems with a reliable source of energy. It is shown that it is advisable to do this in the form of local electric power systems (LEPS), which operate in normal modes in parallel with the EPS as balancing groups, and in extreme c

Ageing is a global phenomenon which has motivated many research and development projects with the aim of providing computing services that support the active and independent living of the elderly. To integrate the ambient intelligence (AmI) vision into the home environment to allow elders to "age in place", it has been identified the necessity of providing high-level software support for creating ambient assisted living (AAL) environments.

Abstract:
This study introduces a novel framework for fair resource allocation in self-governing, multi-agent systems, leveraging principles of interactional justice to enable agents to autonomously evaluate fairness in both individual and collective resource distribution. Central to our approach is the integration of Rescher’s canons of distributive justice, which provide a comprehensive, multidimensional framework encompassing equality, need, effort and productivity to assess legitimate claims on resources. In resource-constrained environments, multiagent systems require a balance between fairness and

Abstract:
Traffic congestion in urban road networks is a costly problem that affects all major cities in developed countries. To tackle this problem, it is possible (i) to act on the supply side, increasing the number of roads or lanes in a network, (ii) to reduce the demand, restricting the access to urban areas at specific hours or to specific vehicles, or (iii) to improve the efficiency of the existing network, by means of a widespread use of so-called Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS).

AbstractReinforcement learning in simulation is a promising alternative to the prohibitive sample cost of reinforcement learning in the physical world. Unfortunately, policies learned in simulation often perform worse than hand-coded policies when applied on the target, physical system. Grounded simulation learning (gsl) is a general framework that promises to address this issue by altering the simulator to better match the real world (Farchy et al. 2013 in Proceedings of the 12th international conference on autonomous agents and multiagent systems (AAMAS)).

Abstract:
Agent-based model (ABM) simulation is a bottom–up approach that can describe the phenomena generated from actions and interactions within a multiagent system. An ABM is an improvement over model simulations which only describe the global behavior of a system. Therefore, it is an appropriate technology to analyze emergent phenomena in social sciences and complex adaptive systems such as vehicular traffic and pedestrian crowds. In this paper, a hybrid agent-based modeling framework designed to automate decision-making processes during traffic congestion is proposed. The model provides drivers wi

There is a growing awareness in the multiagent systems research community that the environment plays a prominent role in multiagent systems. Originating from research on behavior-based agent systems and situated multiagent systems, the importance of the environment is now gradually being accepted in the multiagent system community in general. In this paper, we put forward the environment as a first-order abstraction in multiagent systems. This position is motivated by the fact that several aspects of multiagent systems that conceptually do not belong to agents themselves should not be assigned

In this paper, the authors demonstrate the use of software agents to extend the role of humans in a collaborative work process. The extended roles to agents provide a convenient means for humans to delegate mundane tasks to software agents. The framework employs the FIPA ACL communication protocol which implements communication between agents. An interface for each agent implements the communication between humans and agents. Such interface and the subsequent communication performed by agents and between agents contribute to the achievement of shared goals.
