Osmas: a Multi-agent Testbed for Experimenting with Organizational Structures
نویسنده
چکیده
A multi-agent testbed for experimenting with organizational structures is presented. The testbed is used to experiment with five organizational structures used in Tom Malone’s (1987) study of the efficiency and flexibility of organizational structures. The experiments replace the ordinal distinctions made by Malone of the performance of each structure with a ratio measurement of the differences.

MAGES : A Multiagent Testbed for Heterogeneous Agents
This paper introduces a multiagent system, MAGES, which is used as a testbed for experimenting with different types of interactions between agents using heterogeneous architectures and behavior. This testbed is implemented as an extension of ACTALK, a generic actor language defined in SMALLTALK. It provides for : the ability to describe various agent architectures through a hierarchy of agent t...
متن کاملArchitecture of a discrete-event and agent-based crisis response simulation model
This paper presents an architecture of a discrete-event and agent-based crisis response simulation model. In multi-agent systems as a computational organisation, agents are modelled and implemented separately from the environmental model. We follow this perspective and propose an architecture in which the crisis environment is modelled using discrete events and entities, and the crisis response...
