DISTRIBUTED SECURE COORDINATED CONTROL FOR MULTIAGENT SYSTEM

Reasoning Multiagent System for Distributed System Management*

Due to the proliferation of data networks, applications and services, distributed system management have to face the complexity, heterogeneity, uncertainty and dynamic changes in the managed domain. Multiagent technology provides an appropriate method to deal with the full distributed system because of its autonomy and cooperation. On the other side, the probability reasoning is needed for the ...

Coordinated Distributed Supervisory Control

In supervisor synthesis achieving nonblockingness is a major computational challenge when a target system consists of a large number of local components. To overcome this difficulty we propose a coordinated distributed supervisor synthesis approach, where specifications are enforced by local supervisors. To avoid conflicting among local supervisors, coordinators are created based on automaton a...

Multiagent Systems for Distributed Intelligent Control

HICA: A Framework for Distributed Multiagent Control

A control enhancement to the intelligent agent paradigm is proposed. We refer to this as the Hybrid Intelligent Control Agent (HICA) since it conceptually wraps an intelligent agent around a core that is itself a hybrid control system. This paper discusses the HICA agent and shows how it might be used as a skeletal control agent to synthesize agent-based controllers for inherently distributed m...

A Multiagent System for Distributed Systems Management

The demand for autonomous resource management for distributed systems has increased in recent years. Distributed systems require an efficient and powerful communication mechanism between applications running on different hosts and networks. The use of mobile agent technology to distribute and delegate management tasks promises to overcome the scalability and flexibility limitations of the curre...
