Determination of social laws for multi-agent mobilization

Determination of Social Laws for Multi-Agent Mobilization

In previous work on arti cial social systems, social laws for multi-agent mobilization were hand-crafted for particular network structures. In this work, we introduce an algorithm for the automatic synthesis of social laws for multi-agent mobilization in any 2-connected graph environment. We introduce the notion of a graph routing and show that the problem of computing a useful social law can b...

Choosing social laws for multi-agent systems: Minimality and simplicity

The design of social laws for artiicial agent societies is a basic approach to coordinating multi-agent systems. It exposes the spectrum between fully-centralized and fully-decentralized coordination mechanisms. Useful social laws set constraints on the agents' activities which allow them to work individually in a mutually compatible manner. The design of useful social laws is a problem of cons...

Specifying Laws in Open Multi-Agent Systems

Laws have been used to deal with theoretical and practical issues regarding notions of openness and unpredictably of open multiagent systems. In order to achieve a higher degree of predictability and confidence, practical applications of distributed agents need to describe the interaction structure of the system, and this interaction structure must be regulated. Governing agent interactions can...
