چکیده

This paper explores the nature of conflict in agent-based systems. A conflict classification scheme based on a differentiation between goal, plan, and belief conflicts is presented. A formal definition of these three conflict classes is provided. A three layered representation of conflict is employed. Each layer is assigned to its respective conflict type (i.e. goal, plan, belief). The representation serves to trace the source(s) of conflict, provides a map to potential resolutions, and assists in resolving or avoiding conflicts.

Optimization of majority protocol for controlling transactions concurrency in distributed databases by multi-agent systems

In this paper, we propose a new concurrency control algorithm based on multi-agent systems which is an extension of majority protocol. Then, we suggest a clustering approach to get better results in reliability, decreasing message passing and algorithm’s runtime. Here, we consider n different transactions working on non-conflict data items. Considering execution efficiency of some different...

استفاده از نمایش پراکنده و همکاری دوربین‌ها برای کاربردهای نظارت بینایی

With the growth of demand for security and safety, video-based surveillance systems have been employed in a large number of rural and urban areas. The problem of such systems lies in the detection of patterns of behaviors in a dataset that do not conform to normal behaviors. Recently, for behavior classification and abnormal behavior detection, the sparse representation approach is used. In thi...

Identifying overlapping communities using multi-agent collective intelligence

The proposed algorithm in this research is based on the multi-agent particle swarm optimization as a collective intelligence due to the connection between several simple components which enables them to regulate their behavior and relationships with the rest of the group according to certain rules. As a result, self-organizing in collective activities can be seen. Community structure is crucial...

A Context-aware Architecture for Mental Model Sharing through Semantic Movement in Intelligent Agents

Recent studies in multi-agent systems are paying increasingly more attention to the paradigm of designing intelligent agents with human inspired concepts. One of the main cognitive concepts driving the core of many recent approaches in multi agent systems is shared mental models. In this paper, we propose an architecture for sharing mental models based on a new concept called semantic movement....
