An Organization-oriented Model for Agent Societies
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a conceptual framework for agent societies that incorporates the specification of global organizational characteristics with individual aims and capabilities. The framework consists of three interrelated models each describing different aspects of the society. The organizational model describes agent societies in terms of roles, constraints and interactions rules. The social model populates the society with actual agents that realize the objectives of the society by enacting role(s) described in the organizational model. Finally, the interaction model describes the interaction commitments between those agents. The interdependencies between models are described by means of contracts. Contract rules specify commitments between agents and society concerning role enactment, and commitments between agents concerning interaction.

Method integration: An approach to develop agent oriented methodologies
Agent oriented software engineering (AOSE) is an emerging field in computer science and proposes some systematic ideas for multi agent systems analysis, implementation and maintenance. Despite the various methodologies introduced in the agent-oriented software engineering, the main challenges are defects in different aspects of methodologies. According to the defects resulted from weaknesses ...
متن کاملVirtual Organisations as Agent Societies
We propose a formal agent-based model for VOs in grid/service-oriented architectures, and an operational model for the creation of VOs. The models abstract away from any realisation choice and can be deployed within different agent systems. Within the proposed models, VOs are seen as emerging from societies of agents, where agents are abstractly characterised by goals and roles they can play wi...
متن کاملToward an Organization: Oriented Design Methodology for Agent Societies
In this chapter, we present a framework for the design of agent societies that considers the influence of social organizational aspects on the functionality and objectives of the agent society and specifies the development steps for the design and development of an agent-based system for a particular domain. Our approach will provide a generic frame that directly relates to the organizational p...
متن کاملEvolutionary Game-theoretic Modeling of Past Societies’ Organization Structure
In this work, we extend a generic agent-based model for simulating ancient societies, by blending, for the first time, evolutionary game theory with multiagent systems’ self-organization. Our approach models the evolution of social behaviours in a population of strategically interacting agents corresponding to households in the early Minoan era. To this end, agents participate in repeated games...
متن کاملMigration Dynamics in Artificial Agent Societies
An Artificial Agent Society can be defined as a collection of agents interacting with each other for some purpose and/or inhabiting a specific locality, possibly in accordance to some common norms/rules. These societies are analogous to human and ecological societies, and are an expanding and emerging field in research about social systems. Social networks, electronic markets and disaster manag...
