Self Organization and Coordination

چکیده

In this paper, I analyze the organization of tasks or activities by a collection of agents. I begin by formally defining organized collections and robustly organized collections of agents in the context of a simple model. Within this framework, I demonstrate that organized collections and robustly organized collections exist and equilibria need not be organized. I then test whether adaptive agents can self-organize in this environment. I find that simple behavioral rules can lead to nearly organized, fairly robust collections of agents.

The Complementary Nature of Coordination Dynamics: Self-organization and Agency

Twenty years of empirical and theoretical research has demonstrated that basic forms of biological coordination arise and change due to self-organizing synergetic processes. Here we suggest, using facts and ideas from brain research and quantum measurement theory, that metastability in the underlying coordination dynamics is crucial for the creation and annihilation of meaningful information. S...

The Knowledge-Based Economy: Globalization and Self-Organization of the Dynamics of Communication

Alongside economic exchange relations and political control, the organization of codified knowledge in scientific discourses has become increasingly a third coordination mechanism at the level of the social system. When three coordination mechanisms interact, one can expect the resulting dynamics to be complex and self-organizing. Each coordination mechanism is specific in terms of its code of ...

A Group Selection Pattern for Agent-Based Virtual Organizations Coordination in Grids

A key challenge in Grid computing is the achievement of efficient and self-organized management of the Virtual Organizations composing the system. Grids are often very heterogeneous, incorporating high dynamicity and unpredictability. Introducing higher levels of adaptation and learning in the coordination protocols may help coping with complexity. We provide a solution based on a self-organize...
