Multiagent Resource Allocation (MARA) distributes a set of resources among a set of intelligent agents in order to respect the preferences of the agents and to maximize some measure of global utility, which may include minimizing total costs or maximizing total return. We are interested in MARA solutions that provide optimal or close-to-optimal allocation of resources in terms of maximizing a g...

in order to respond to the problem of urban decline, different approaches have been defined in sucha way that urban regeneration approach became current in the 1980s (and more wildly after 1995) as a replacement for urban renewal. urban regeneration is the holistic process of reversing economic, social and physical decay in areas where it has reached a stage when market forces alone will not su...

Urban growth management in New South Wales (NSW) has had a patchy history. Deficiencies have existed at the State level for example, in the policies and mechanisms for the management of the impact of development on natural resource values and environmental quality. Included in this scenario are various market-based instruments, the utilisation of which have been part of the Australian policy an...

Markets are complex economic systems that function as intermediaries between consumers and providers. Traditional methods for studying market mechanisms, utilized by economists and mathematicians, use analytical approaches. Today, the rapid proliferation of the Internet is stimulating the transformation of classical markets into electronic markets (e-markets). Traditional theories cannot adequa...

The power systems of today seem inseparable from clean energy sources such as wind turbines (WTs) and photovoltaics (PVs). However, due to their uncertain nature, operational challenges are expected when WT PV is added the electricity network. It necessary introduce new technologies compensate for intermittent nature renewable (RESs). Therefore, rationally implementing a demand response (DR) pr...
