Organizational Architectures for Large-Scale Multi-Agent Systems' Development: An Initial Ontology
نویسنده
چکیده
An initial conceptualization of organizational design techniques for large-scale multi-agent systems (LSMAS) based on the paradigm of organizational architecture is introduced. Seven perspectives (organizational structure, processes, culture, strategy, individual agents, organizational agents and inter-organizational context) are analyzed and dened. By using a graph theoretic approach and recursive de nitions the ontological framework allows for modeling all perspectives on an arbitrary level of detail and complexity from the global system to low level individuals. The provided conceptualization is the foundation of a to be established ontology on organizational design methods for designing, developing and maintaining LSMAS.

Public Transport Ontology for Passenger Information Retrieval
Passenger information aims at improving the user-friendliness of public transport systems while influencing passenger route choices to satisfy transit user’s travel requirements. The integration of transit information from multiple agencies is a major challenge in implementation of multi-modal passenger information systems. The problem of information sharing is further compounded by the multi-l...

Ontology is the main infrastructure of the Semantic Web which provides facilities for integration, searching and sharing of information on the web. Development of ontologies as the basis of semantic web and their heterogeneities have led to the existence of ontology matching. By emerging large-scale ontologies in real domain, the ontology matching systems faced with some problem like memory con...
متن کاملStructure in threes: modelling organization-oriented software architectures built upon multi-agent systems
Software systems are subject to increasing complexity and in need of efficient structuring. Multi-agent system research has come up with approaches for an organization-oriented comprehension of software systems. However, when it comes to the collective level of organizational analysis, multi-agent system technology lacks clear development concepts. To overcome this problem while preserving the ...

Nowadays, the need for architectures and computational models for large scale open multi-agent systems is considered a key issue for the success of agent technology in real world scenarios. The main goal of this paper is to describe a case study in Home Care applying an abstract architecture and a computational model for large scale open multi-agent systems based on a service-oriented approach....
متن کاملArchitectural Styles for Information Systems: An Organizational Perspective
Enterprise information systems such as ERP, Knowledge Management or e-business systems need to deploy information system architectures which match the organization of the enterprise within which they operate. This calls for system architectures which adopt models from research in organization theory. With this idea in mind, we offer a set of organization–oriented architectural styles for inform...
