چکیده

This article advocates the need for a radical rethink of software agent technology by investigating the mechanisms through which knowledge, deliberation, action and control interact to form truly intelligent autonomous agents, be they deliberative, intentional or purely reactive automata/particles/actors. Using sound logical formal modelling techniques, this work attempts to propose a unified model of multiagency, which integrates and consolidates various proposed software agent models including; deliberative, cognitive, collectivist and individualist agent perspectives. In particular, the paper focuses on the formal semantics of modelbased and emergent regulatory structure of autonomic self-regenerative systems, agents or particles (swarm intelligence). In addition, the paper uses our new scripting language – Neptune and associated development environment, which transforms formal requirements models of a given agency to executable code.

A rule-based evaluation of ladder logic diagram and timed petri nets for programmable logic controllers

This paper describes an evaluation through a case study by measuring a rule-based approach, which proposed for ladder logic diagrams and Petri nets. In the beginning, programmable logic controllers were widely designed by ladder logic diagrams. When complexity and functionality of manufacturing systems increases, developing their software is becoming more difficult. Thus, Petri nets as a high l...

Future study of Description System Architecture Approaches with Emphasis on Strategic Management

Systems Architecture is a generic discipline to handle objects (existing or to be created) called systems, in a way that supports reasoning about the structural properties of these objects. Systems Architecture is a response to the conceptual and practical difficulties of the description and the design of complex systems. Systems Architecture is a generic discipline to handle objects (existin...

Four kinds of models of emergent representations re - sulting from the decomposition individual / collective and internal / external Leonardo

In this paper we develop the concept of emergent representations from decomposition along two axes: collective/individual and internal/external. In a collective/internal composition, emergent representations are seen as internal, stable and non-reactive complex adaptive systems. We present four principles and an UML formalism concerning a Model of Emergent Representations (MER). Impact in the e...

] 2 3 Se p 20 05 Photons and electrons as emergent phenomena

Recent advances in condensed matter theory have revealed that new and exotic phases of matter can exist in spin models (or more precisely, local bosonic models) via a simple physical mechanism, known as ”string-net condensation.” These new phases of matter have the unusual property that their collective excitations are gauge bosons and fermions. In some cases, the collective excitations can beh...

A Subsumption Agent for Collaborative Free Improvisation

This paper discusses the design and evaluation of an artificial agent for collaborative musical free improvisation. The agent provides a means to investigate the underpinnings of improvisational interaction. In connection with this general goal, the system is also used here to explore the implementation of a collaborative musical agent using a specific robotics architecture, Subsumption. The ar...
