Some initial research concerning the provision of a Multi-Agent Based Simulation (MABS) frameworks, to support rodent simulation, is presented. The issues discussed include the representation of: (i) the environment and the characters that interact with the environment, (ii) the nature of the “intelligence” that these characters might posses and (iii) the mechanisms whereby characters interact ...

The equilibrium of the market for offenses using agentbased simulation is studied. One of the potential applications of it is to seek optimal policy in governing an open multi-agent system, especially when heterogeneous agents may behave maliciously. A theoretical work by Fender (1999) is chosen as the basic framework for the simulation. The simulation results show more detailed properties of t...

In multiagent systems, each agent has its own local view of the environment. Nevertheless, agents try to cooperate to reach a common global goal. In this paper, we use a suitable Grothendieck topology and sheaves to model the agents’ local data and their communication.

An ambient agent system is presented estimating a human’s dynamics of desiring and being tempted. The agent is equipped with a dynamical model of the human’s processes which describes how a desire relates to responses in the form of being prepared for certain actions, which in turn relate to feelings which can be biased, due to experiences in the past. It is shown how by use of this dynamical m...

Multi-Agent Based Simulation (MABS) is concerned with the utilisation of agent based technology for the purpose of running simulations of real world scenarios. The challenge is in encoding the agents so that they operate as realistically as possible. The work described in this paper is directed at the mining of movement information from video data which can then be used to encode the operation ...

This paper is devoted to preference-based recommendation or configuration in the context of multiagent (or multicriteria) decision making. More precisely, we study the use of decomposable utility functions in the search for Choquet-optimal solutions on combinatorial domains. We consider problems where the alternatives (feasible solutions) are represented as elements of a product set of finite d...

In this paper, I present my ongoing research on agent-based negotiation teams. An agent-based negotiation team is a group of two or more agents with their own and possibly conflicting goals that join together as a single negotiation party because they share a common goal that is related to the negotiation. Our research goal is to provide agent-based solutions for problems which may need negotia...

This paper describes how to utilise Case Based Reasoning for identifying and user situations assessment in a contextaware mobile system. The Case Based Reasoning mechanism attempts to identify what situation the user is in, and utilises a Multi Agent System, consisting of information suppliers, to provide the user with personalised and contextsensitive information.
