agent technology is an emerging and promising research area in software technology, which increasingly contributes to the development of value-added information systems for large healthcare organizations due to its capability to automatically modify themselves in response to changes in their operating environment. multi agent system (mas) approach is the construction of a complex system as a se...

agent oriented software engineering (aose) is an emerging field in computer science  and  proposes some systematic ideas for multi agent systems analysis, implementation and maintenance. despite the various methodologies introduced in the agent-oriented software engineering, the main challenges are defects in different aspects of methodologies. according to the defects resulted from weaknesses ...

in this paper, a formal model for antivirus update agent system is presented based on mobile agent technology and predicate/transition petri nets. the mobile agent system contains two mobile agents called dca and una. it sends out agents to update antivirus on client computers in a network. each agent takes on a specified responsibility. first, dca roams through the network and check the last d...

background: use of contrast agents (cas) during ct simulation for treatment planing system leads to changes in  electron density. in this study we aimed to investigate the effect on  calculated dose of various concentrations of cas on treatment planing systems in different dose calculation algorithms. materials and methods: contrast agent (0.769 mg/ml iopromid) - water mixtures at concentration...

this paper presents a cooperative control which is applied to the secondary control of a microgrid controlled via a multi-agent scheme. balancing power that leads to voltage and frequency stability in a microgrid is essential. the voltage and frequency regulations are limiting within the specified limits and conveying them to their nominal values. limiting and conveying the voltage and frequenc...

nowadays, outsourcing is viewed as a trade strategy and organizations tend to adopt new strategies to achieve competitive advantages in the current world of business. focusing on main copmpetencies, and transferring most of activities to outside resources of organization( outsourcing) is one such strategy is. in this paper, we aim to decide on decision maker agent of transportation system, by a...

This paper presents a multi agent system for the job shop scheduling problems. The proposed system consists of initial scheduling agent, search agents, and schedule management agent. In initial scheduling agent, a modified Shifting Bottleneck is proposed. That is, an effective heuristic approach and can generate a good solution in a low computational effort. In search agents, a hybrid search ap...
