چکیده
In this paper we discuss the model of an environment, acting as a first-class entity for MAS Simulation. To illustrate, we use the DIVAs framework’s design and implementation details.

High Level Architecure for Distributed Agent Simulation in Computer Games
Multi Agent System (MAS) have been in existence for quite a long time and have been a focused area of research in different paradigms over the years. As a result, several test beds and simulation tools exist for their deployment in software engineering problems. However, these test beds are suited for specific agents types and environments and lack support for interoperating with other agent ar...
متن کاملDesigning Self-organising MAS Environments: The Collective Sort Case
Self-organisation is being recognised as an effective conceptual framework to deal with the complexity inherent to modern artificial systems. In this article, we explore the applicability of self-organisation principles to the development of multi-agent system (MAS) environments. First, we discuss a methodological approach for the engineering of complex systems, which features emergent properti...
متن کاملEvaluating the Effectiveness of Daylight Performance Metrics in Predicting Visual Comfort Case Study: Educational Architecture Design Studios in Tehran
It is essential to ensure that adequate daylight penetrates in, especially, educational environments. In spite of positive significant impacts of daylight on the emotions, concentration, and learning of students, an exceeded amount of light will lead to glare and visual dissatisfaction. Over the last few years, with the help of simulation tools and lighting indices, it is possible to predict li...
متن کاملHLA Proxy: Towards Connecting Agents to Virtual Environments by Means of High Level Architecture (HLA)
Coupling virtual environments (e.g. game engines like Source Engine or Unreal Engine 3) with agent reasoning systems (ARS) is often used in the multi-agent systems (MAS) research field. However, externally connecting ARS or MAS to environments almost always requires individual approach for every coupling. Therefore, we recognize the need for a common method of access, without the need to implem...
متن کاملSmooth Scaling Ahead: Progressive MAS Simulation from Single PCs to Grids
The emerging ”Computational Grid” infrastructure poses many new opportunities for the developing science of large scale multiagent simulation. The ability to migrate agent experiments seamlessly from simple, local single-processor development tools to large-scale distributed simulation environments provides valuable new models for experimentation and software engineering: first develop local, f...
