ABSTRACT = {The CEC Project GOAL (Esprit 6283) aims to develop generic software
tools to support a new project management paradigm, in which projects
are collaborative, decentralised and inter-organizational. Our research
and development activities have focussed on using multi-agent systems
to address the inter-organizational aspects of interaction and communication
between partners in such projects. The multi-agent framework we have
been investigating and developing, called the Cooperation Services
Framework (CSF), is designed to support distributed computer-supported
cooperative work in inter-organizational project management. This
position paper reviews our developments to date, describes our programme
for realising a prototype demonstrator, and discusses some of the
issues to be addressed in future investigation and experimentation.
In particular, extending the CSF to include `agent brokering' between
`rational agents' would enable other applications for inter-organizational
interactions to be developed, such as trading systems and on-line
information services.},

ABSTRACT = {Following earlier approaches we use game-theoretic techniques to model
the conflict of interest and cooperation among agents. We apply this
techniques to the domain of traffic signal control whose usual strategies
are modelled in a decentralized fashion. In our architecture traffic
elements are modelled as single agents which have diverse knowledge
represented by means of information sets. Lack of knowledge is modelled
by means of games with incomplete information. Interactions among
agents are both cooperative and noncooperative and are based on the
rationality of the agents, which pick one of the equilibrium points
of the game. Therefore the problem of equilibrium selection for noncooperative
games is explored. For cooperative games the bargaining solution
is used. Some examples of the traffic signal control domain which
map interactions in noncooperative as well as in cooperative situations
are presented.}

ABSTRACT = {A multi-agent distributed architecture for autonomous planning and
scheduling tasks of a space system formation is here proposed. Each
physical element of the team is represented as an independent unit,
with its own knowledge base, its own resources and its operational
skills. High-level goals asking for single/ multiple units coordinated
intervention can be dealt with. The pre/post-conditions consistent
net definition to accomplish the distributed planning task is accomplished
thanks to a Partial Ordered Planning algorithm. A temporal net formalism
is chosen to cope with the distributed scheduling problem: the infra/inter
agents' temporal consistency is gained by applying an All Shortest
Paths algorithm. No instantiation is asked for solving the distributed
net, to preserve robustness of the scheduling according to possible
external uncertainties and system failures. As no leader exists,
local and shared resource consistency is acquired thanks to iterative
negotiation processes among agents for the best compromise selection
devoted to lower the conflicts occurrence. Two negotiation strategies
are presented, to emphasize either the team welfare or the single
agent welfare respectively. The communication protocol is based on
the innovation of the communication oriented graph concept The proposed
architecture is here applied to a rovers scenario devoted to planetary
exploration. Simulations show the validity of the proposed approach
to assure multiple and robust final allocations. ©2005 IEEE.},

ABSTRACT = {This paper discusses specific features of planning in
multiagent domains and presents concepts for a
multiagent extension of PDDL, the Multiagent Planning
Language MAPL. MAPL uses non-boolean
state variables and thus allows to describe an agent's
ignorance of facts as well as a simplified mutex
concept. The time model of MAPL is based on Simple
Temporal Networks and allows both quantitavive and
qualitative use of time in plans, thereby subsuming the
plan semantics of both partial order plans and PDDL

ABSTRACT = {In this paper we attempt to use reinforcement learning techniques
to solve agent coordination problems in task-oriented environments.
The Fuzzy Subjective Task Structure model (FSTS) is presented to
model the general agent coordination. We show that an agent coordination
problem modeled in FSTS is a Decision-Theoretic Planning (DTP) problem
to which reinforcement learning can be applied. Two learning algorithms
"coarse-grained" and "fine-grained" are proposed to address agents
coordination behavior at two different levels. The "coarse-grained"
algorithm operates at one level and tackle hard system constraints
and the "fine-grained" at another level and for soft constraints.
We argue that it is important to explicitly model and explore coordination-specific
(particularly system constraints) information which underpins the
two algorithms and attributes to the effectiveness of the algorithms.
The algorithms are formally proved to converge and experimentally
shown to be effective. © 2005 Springer Science+Business Media, Inc.},

ABSTRACT = {The allocation of resources within a system of
autonomous agents, that not only have preferences over
alternative allocations of resources but also actively
participate in computing an allocation, is an exciting
area of research at the interface of Computer Science
and Economics. This paper is a survey of some of the
most salient issues in Multiagent Resource Allocation.
In particular, we review various languages to represent
the preferences of agents over alternative allocations
of resources as well as different measures of social
welfare to assess the overall quality of an allocation.
We also discuss pertinent issues regarding allocation
procedures and present important complexity results.
Our presentation of theoretical issues is complemented
by a discussion of software packages for the simulation
of agent-based market places. We also introduce four
major application areas for Multiagent Resource
Allocation, namely industrial procurement, sharing of
satellite resources, manufacturing control, and grid
computing.},

problem of distributed planning, even in a hierarchically organized
system. To conclude, we propose a multi-agent framework to simulate
different configurations of supply chain and anticipate the impact
of the different decision models used by the different business units
of the supply chain.},

ABSTRACT = {The need for coordinated material flow in supply chains is essential
for the competitiveness of manufacturing firms. A hierarchical coordination
is not applicable for each supply chain. A collaboration between
entities is required to meet future challenges. Besides appropriate
planning concepts an IT solution is a major challenge. Multi-Agent
Systems (MAS) are an enabler for a decentralized coordination process.
The evolvement of appropriate planning methods makes MAS interesting
for collaborative Supply Chain Management (SCM). Nevertheless, the
user should be seen as the supply chain engineer, holding the knowledge
to create the collaborative supply chain processes. Therefore, the
user has to be integrated in the IT solution. A configurable MAS,
based on generic components, satisfies this requirement so that MAS
can easily be adapted to the changing processes and environment by
the user. This paper presents a concept of a configurable MAS and
a prototype of a MAS-Editor for collaborative production planning

ABSTRACT = {The use of software agents for automatic contract negotiation in e-commerce
and e-trading environments has been the subject of considerable recent
interest. A widely studied abstract model considers the setting in
which a set of agents have some collection of resources shared out
between them and attempt to construct a mutually beneficial optimal
reallocation of these by trading resources. The simplest such trades
are those in which a single agent transfers exactly one resource
to another--so-called 'one-resource-at-a-time' or 'O-contracts'.
In this research note we consider the computational complexity of
a number of natural decision problems in this setting.},

into a global system plan, maintaining a commitment to considerations
of global utility that may differ radically from individual agent
utilities. We present a three-stage heuristic reduction process,
consisting of a transformation from local to global utility measures,
a global assessment of the local evaluations of agents, and approximation
algorithms to maximize resource usage over time. We also consider
how these techniques can be used with self-motivated agents, and
show how the overall process can be distributed among a group of
agents.},

VOLUME = {142},
PAGES = {205--237},
NUMBER = {2},
ABSTRACT = {Automated negotiation is a key form of interaction in systems that
are composed of multiple autonomous agents. The aim of such interactions
is to reach agreements through an iterative process of making offers.
The content of such proposals are, however, a function of the strategy
of the agents. Here we present a strategy called the trade-off strategy
where multiple negotiation decision variables are traded-off against
one another (e.g., paying a higher price in order to obtain an earlier
delivery date or waiting longer in order to obtain a higher quality
service). Such a strategy is commonly known to increase the social
welfare of agents. Yet, to date, most computational work in this
area has ignored the issue of trade-offs, instead aiming to increase
social welfare through mechanism design. The aim of this paper is
to develop a heuristic computational model of the trade-off strategy
and show that it can lead to an increased social welfare of the system.
A novel linear algorithm is presented that enables software agents
to make trade-offs for multi-dimensional goods for the problem of
distributed resource allocation. Our algorithm is motivated by a
number of real-world negotiation applications that we have developed
and can operate in the presence of varying degrees of uncertainty.
Moreover, we show that on average the total time used by the algorithm
is linearly proportional to the number of negotiation issues under
consideration. This formal analysis is complemented by an empirical
evaluation that highlights the operational effectiveness of the algorithm
in a range of negotiation scenarios. The algorithm itself operates
by using the notion of fuzzy similarity to approximate the preference
structure of the other negotiator and then uses a hill-climbing technique
to explore the space of possible trade-offs for the one that is most
likely to be acceptable. © 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights

ABSTRACT = {The MARS system is described which models cooperative scheduling within
a society of shipping companies as a multiagent system. Emphasis
is placed on the functionality of the system as a whole --- the solution
of the global scheduling problem emerges from local decision-making
and problem-solving strategies. An extension of the contract net
protocol is presented; we show that it can be used to obtain good
initial solutions for complex resource allocation problems. By introducing
global information based upon auction protocols, this initial solution
can be improved significantly. Experimental results are provided
evaluating the performance of different cooperative scheduling strategies.
Although the concepts for resource scheduling are presented solely
for the transportation domain, their abstraction is useful for a
broad variety of resource allocation problems. The MARS system solves
the dynamic scheduling problem where no complete specification of
the problem is available a priori; thus, it is designed as an on-line
system based upon anytime algorithms.},

ABSTRACT = {A multi-agent system (MAS) for supporting the planning of transhipments
of imported finished vehicles via a seaport is presented. The focus
is on storage allocation, i.e. the allocation of parking areas for
the temporary storage of vehicles, and on deployment scheduling,
i.e. the allocation of drivers to the vehicles that have to be moved
in the terminal area. These planning tasks, which in practice are
usually carried out by different operators, are assigned to two different
agent types. A further agent, the coordinator agent, is responsible
for combining the local sub-plans into an overall plan in such a
way that the demand for drivers in the planning period is minimised
and balanced. The MAS is tested using randomly generated problem
instances with different distributions of the manufacturer shares
in the vehicle streams. The tests verify a certain robustness of
the MAS with regard to changes in the problem data, in particular
to the number of permanently employed drivers and the cost surcharge
for hired drivers. In addition, the results highlight that the minimum
overall (relative) costs of the drivers depends on the number of
permanently employed drivers and on the level of the cost surcharge
for hired drivers. © 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

ABSTRACT = {A supply chain is a worldwide network of suppliers, manufactures,
warehouses, distribution centers and retailers through which raw
materials are acquired, transformed and delivered to customers. In
recent years, a new system approach for managing the supply chain
at the tactical and operational levels has emerged. It views a supply
chain as composed of a set of intelligent (software) agents, who
are responsible for one or more activities and interacting with other
related agents in planning and executing their responsibilities.
This paper presents a multiagent architecture of supply chain integration.
Agents coordination using extended contract net protocol is discussed.
Two types of bidding approaches, i.e., the customizing-type and webbing-type
are introduced into the multiagent supply chain system. Finally,
a heuristics and two programming models for the planning and coordination
of demand-driven supply chains are suggested. © Springer-Verlag London

ABSTRACT = {We view meeting scheduling as a distributed task where each agent
knows its user's preferences and calendar availability in order to
act on behalf of its user. Although we may have some intuitions about
how some parameters could affect the scheduling efficiency and meeting
quality, we run several experiments in order to explore the tradeoffs
between different parameters. Our experiments show how the calendar
and preference privacy affect the schedulling efficiency and the
meeting joint quality under different experimental scenarios. The
results show how the scheduling performance is more stable and constant
when agents try to keep both calendar and preference privacy. We
believe that these parameters play a key role in the distributed
meeting scheduling task, specially if we are interested in building
distributed systems with truly autonomous and independent agents
where there is not a fixed centralized host agent.}

ABSTRACT = {Despite more than a decade of experimental work in
multi-robot systems, important theoretical aspects of
multi-robot coordination mechanisms have, to date, been
largely untreated. To address this issue, we focus on
the problem of multi-robot task allocation (MRTA). Most
work on MRTA has been ad hoc and empirical, with many
coordination architectures having been proposed and
validated in a proof-of-concept fashion, but
infrequently analyzed. With the goal of bringing
objective grounding to this important area of research,
we present a formal study of MRTA problems. A
domain-independent taxonomy of MRTA problems is given,
and it is shown how many such problems can be viewed as
instances of other, well-studied, optimization
problems. We demonstrate how relevant theory from
operations research and combinatorial optimization can
be used for analysis and greater understanding of
existing approaches to task allocation, and show how
the same theory can be used in the synthesis of new
approaches.},

ABSTRACT = {Plan synchronization is a method of analyzing multiagent plans, in
order to introduce ordering constraints between them so that their
concurrent execution achieve a desired goal. We describe a plan synchronization
method for goals expressed using temporal logic specifications. Our
goals can involve both qualitative and quantitative time requirements.
The key to our method is a technique for checking goal formulas,
incrementally, over models of concurrent executions of plans. Our
approach covers more general problems than comparable methods and
promises an easy integration with standard AI planning search control
and heuristic strategies.},

ABSTRACT = {This paper outlines the basic principles underlying reasoning about
resources in IPP, which is a classical planner based on planning
graphs originally introduced with the Graphplan system. The main
idea is to deal with resources in a strictly action-centered way,
i.e. one specifies how each action consumes or produces resources,
but no explicit temporal model is used. This avoids the computational
problems of solving general constraint satisfaction problems by using
instead interval arithmetics and propagation of resource requirements
over time steps in the planning graph.},
ANNOTE = {A planner is described that uses resource consuming and producing
actions. Resources are represented by integers that can increase
or decrease. The required STRIPS/ADL extension is described. The
planner itself uses a variant of the Graphplan approach. There is
no explicit representation of time other than seeing time as a resource.},

YEAR = {2003},
ABSTRACT = {Coalition formation methods allow agents to join together and are
thus necessary in cases where tasks can only be performed cooperatively
by groups. This is the case in the Request For Proposal (RFP) domain,
where some requester business agent issues an RFP - a complex task
comprised of sub-tasks - and several service provider agents need
to join together to address this RFP. In such environments the value
of the RFP may be common knowledge, however the costs that an agent
incurs for performing a specific sub-task are unknown to other agents.
Additionally, time for addressing RFPs is limited. These constraints
make it hard to apply traditional coalition formation mechanisms,
since those assume complete information, and time constraints are
of lesser significance there. To address this problem, we have developed
a protocol that enables agents to negotiate and form coalitions,
and provide them with simple heuristics for choosing coalition partners.
The protocol and the heuristics allow the agents to form coalitions
in the face of time constraints and incomplete information. The overall
payoff of agents using our heuristics is very close to an experimentally
measured optimal value, as our extensive experimental evaluation
shows.},

ABSTRACT = {Due to the widespread availability of the Internet, large scale distributed
projects in manufacturing are becoming popular. In order to address
the dynamic requirements of multi-project production, this paper
develops a collaborative multi-project planning and scheduling system
based on the multi-agent technology. The hybrid framework of system
is presented and discussed with detail. Six types of intelligent
agents are proposed in this system. These agents are dynamically
deployed at each location where a project is executed. Further more,
a negotiation mechanism for multi-project planning and scheduling
is developed to coordinate these distributed agents. Task allocation
strategy and critical resource leveling strategy are also presented.
Through which a predictable and nearly optimal scheduling with agility
and adaptability can be realized in distributed multiple projects
manufacturing environment. Finally, a prototype system was implemented
upon this framework, and was validated in an aerospace company. ©

ABSTRACT = {There is an increasing interest in the relation between logic and
the changes involved in reasoning and, specifically, in plan generation.
Up to now, several attempts in this direction have been made, either
by embedding actions into a classical framework or by using nonstandard
formalisms. We think that these attempts, though promising, miss
their objectives, for a lack of a suitable logic, and that the effort
must be pursued. In this paper, we show how to obtain a strong and
clean correspondence between proofs and sequences of actions by using
only Girard's linear logic, eliminating from the classical logic
the structural rules which are not adapted to our purpose. A theorem
is presented which expresses the new adequacy between proofs and
actions.},

ABSTRACT = {A multicriteria approach for distributed planning and conflict resolution
in multiagent systems is presented in the paper. A graph representation
is used to model the plans of each agent and a multicriteria ``best''
path procedure can be used in order to obtain the ``best'' path for
each agent considering her/his private goals. In our approach private
and local goals do not necessarily coincide. A conflict and/or positive
cooperation may occur and a detection procedure is triggered as soon
as the agents broadcast their ``best plans''. A negotiation process
is the established if necessary. Such a process iterates the use
of the graph representation and of the ``best'' path algorithm to
a level including the agents that have to negotiate. The parameters
of the multicriteria model used to evaluate the paths are then negotiated
or even the model itself. Some open problems conclude the paper.}

NOTE = {Also published as~\cite{Nebel00}.},
ABSTRACT = {The recent approaches of extending the GRAPHPLAN algorithm to handle
more expressive planning formalisms raise the question of what the
formal meaning of ``expressive power'' is. We formalize the intuition
that expressive power is a measure of how concisely planning domains
and plans can be expressed in a particular formalism by introducing
the notion of ``compilation schemes'' between planning formalisms.
Such compilation schemes restrict the growth of planning domains
and the corresponding plans. Using this notion, we analyze the expressiveness
of a large family of propositional planning formalisms, ranging from
basic STRIPS to a formalism with conditional effects, partial state
specifications, and propositional formulae in the preconditions.
One of the results is that conditional effects cannot be compiled
away if plan size should grow only linearly but can be compiled away
if we allow for polynomial growth of the resulting plans. This result
confirms that the recently proposed extensions to the GRAPHPLAN algorithm
concerning conditional effects are optimal with respect to the ``compilability''
framework. Another result is that general propositional formulae
cannot be compiled into conditional effects if the plan size should
be preserved. This implies that allowing general propositional formulae
in preconditions and effect conditions adds another level of difficulty
in generating a plan.},

ABSTRACT = {In this paper, we propose an autonomous decentralized optimization
system for multi-stage production processes. The proposed system
consists of a Material Requirement Planning subsystem, a Distribution
Planning subsystem and Decentralized Scheduling subsystems belonging
to each production stage that constitute the entire plant. In the
proposed system, each subsystem repeats both optimization of the
schedule at each subsystem and data exchange among the subsystems.
Computational results demonstrate that the results of the proposed
planning system are superior to those of the hierarchical planning
system, despite the fact that the proposed system has wide flexibility
for adding the constraints and modifying the criterion of performance
evaluation. © 2005 Springer Science+Business Media, Inc.},

ABSTRACT = {In this paper, we propose a metalevel coordination strategy to implement
an adaptive organization for reactive cooperative planning. The adaptive
organization changes its organizational scheme adaptively as a means
of coping with the dynamic problem spaces. Preliminary experiments
shows that an adaptive organization can be made to the increase efficiency
in dynamic problem spaces. The reason for this works is that reducing
the degree of freedom in the problem space, while increasing the
degree of interaction, demands greater coordination. However, if
the number of effective local plans decrease, it would seem likely
that if the agents were to have a better metalevel strategy, they
would be better able to search this reduced space efficiently. The
metalevel coordination incorporates an agent-wide metalevel heuristic
function. In designing the metalevel coordination strategy, we take
three aspects of reactive cooperative planning into account. These
aspects include: the difference in the degree of achievement in successive
turns; the certainty of shared information; and the degree of freedom
of choice for agent's behavior. The adaptive organization works efficiently
in cases where the communication cost is relatively expensive.}

ABSTRACT = {Coordination is one of those words: it appears in most science and
social fields, in politics, warfare, and it is even the subject of
sports talks. While the usage of the word may convey different ideas
to different people, the definition of coordination in all fields
is quite similar - it relates to the control, planning, and execution
of activities that are performed by distributed (perhaps independent)
actors. Computer scientists involved in the field of distributed
systems and agents focus on the distribution aspect of this concept.
They see coordination as a separate field from all the others - a
field that rather complements standard fields such as the ones mentioned
above. This paper focuses on explaining the term coordination in
relation to distributed and multi-agent systems. Several approaches
to coordination are described and put in perspective. The paper finishes
with a look at what we are calling emergent coordination and its
potential for efficiently handling coordination in open environments.

ABSTRACT = {Queuing and accepting reservations are common social
methods for allocating scarce resources in our daily
lives. However, neither method is flexible when they
are components of large, complex plans. In this paper
we investigate the use of mobile devices that provide
timely information, facilitate planning, and enable the
trading of reservations. We investigate the behavior of
a closed society of simple agents competing for scarce
resources. The results of the experiments demonstrate
that a simple reservation mechanism can actually reduce
the social welfare under certain conditions, but
tradable reservations and clairvoyance each improve it.
While in many situations queues are unavoidable, better
information and more flexibility in reservation
handling can facilitate planning.},

ABSTRACT = {Distributed planning is fundamental to the generation of co-operative
activities in Multi-Agent Systems. It requires both an adequate plan
representation and efficient interacting methods allowing agents
to coordinate their plans. This paper proposes a recursive model
for the representation and the handling of plans by means of Recursive
Petri Nets (RPN) which support the specification of concurrent activities,
reasoning about simultaneous actions and continuous processes, a
theory of verification and mechanisms of transformation (e.g. abstraction,
refinement, merging). The main features of the RPN formalism are
domain independence, broad coverage of interacting situations and
operational coordination. This paper also provides an approach to
the interleaving of execution and planning which is based on the
RPN semantics and gives some significant methods allowing plan management
in distributed planning. It goes on to show how this approach can
be used to coordinate agents' plans in a shared and dynamic environment.},

ABSTRACT = {Computational infrastructures for cooperative work should contain
embedded agents for handling many routine tasks, but as the number
of agents increases and the agents become geographically and/or conceptually
dispersed, supervision of the agents will become increasingly problematic.
We argue that agents should be provided with deep domain knowledge
that allos them to make justifiable decisions, rather than shallow
models of users to mimic. In this paper, we use the application domain
of distributed meeting scheduling to investigate how agents embodying
deeper domain knowledge can choose among alternative strategies for
searching their calendars in order to create flexible schedules within
reasonable cost.},

ABSTRACT = {Epistemic utility theory, originally developed to model single-agent
cognitive decision-making, is extended to the multi-agent case and
applied to practical coordinated decision-making. For an M-agent
society, individual and multiple agent coordination information is
contained in a 2M-dimensional coordination space. The coordination
function is a joint probability mass (or density) function defined
over the coordination space that characterizes: (a) each individual
agent's goals and standards; (b) each individual agent's abductive
considerations, such as cost, hazard, or resource consumption; and
(c) information pertaining to the interactions within the society,
such as cooperation, competition, exploitation, compromise, tolerance,
and indifference. The coordination function is used to derive two
joint utilities, termed accuracy and rejectability, and a joint version
of Levi's rule of epistemic utility is applied to identify the satisficing
set of decision vectors that represent jointly rational behavior
for the society.}

ABSTRACT = {This paper describes plan reuse in multiagent domains. In distributed
planning, a plan is created by distributed centers of planner agents
that have their own viewpoints. Plan reuse where a past plan result
is reused for the new problem was proposed for single-agent planning
and can achieve efficient planning. A special issue for applying
it to distributed planning is that, even if the local agent thinks
that the new problem is identical to a past problem, other agents
may have quite different goals. Another issue is to realize efficient
distributed planning, like in a single-agent case. This paper shows
that the past plan can be reused regardless of other agents' goals
under the assumption that the initial state has only ``in-facts.''
A generated plan and related information are stored as a plan template
so that an agent can reuse it in future planning. This information
includes generated plans, subgoals, non-local effects that may affect
or be affected by other agents' plans, and their conflict resolution
methods that were actually used. An agent can create a plan efficiently
using a template, because it can skip a part of planning actions,
detect conflicts in an early stage, and reduce communication costs.
First, this paper presents the planning-with-reuse framework. Then
how plan templates are created and reused is also illustrated using
some block world examples. Finally, we experimentally show that efficient
distributed planning can be achieved.}

ABSTRACT = {Coordination is an essential technique in cooperative, distributed
multi-agent systems. However, sophisticated coordination strategies
are not always cost-effective in all problem-solving situations.
This paper presents a learning method to acquire coordination plans
for specific problem-solving situations so that the appropriate type
of coordination strategy is used. This learning is accomplished by
recording and analyzing traces of inferences after problem solving.
The analysis results in identification of situations where inappropriate
coordination strategies have caused redundant activities or the lack
of timely execution of important activities, thus degrading system
performance. Based on this identification, situation-specific coordination
plans are created which use additional non-local information about
activities in the networks to remedy the problem. An example from
a real distributed problem-solving application involving diagnosis
of a local area network is described.}

ABSTRACT = {Although previous studies have achieved a great deal on the local
decision areas including inventory policies, vendor selection, production
scheduling, etc., and the strategic problems, e.g. networks design,
simulation and prediction of the supply chain as a whole, few attempts
have been focused on the integrated solution for supply chain operational
management. As the structure of Multi-agent systems (MAS) inherently
meets the requirements of autonomy and decentralization for supply
chains, we propose a multi-agent-based model of planning, scheduling
and execution that is capable of supporting the resource coordination
between the self-interested agents through a combinatorial auction
mechanism. And a general framework of ASCMS (Agile Supply Chain Management
System) is presented as the background. To facilitate the functions
of this system, the components of various agents and the negotiation
process are also discussed in this paper. © 2005 IEEE.},

NUMBER = {4},
ABSTRACT = {This paper presents a system for designing and updating a personalized
study plan in a collaborative environment. Unlike existing systems,
which are mainly interested in storing the study plan, this system
based on learning agents is able to suggest a study plan and if needed,
identify potentially problematic choices in the future, thus bringing
dynamics in to the system. By collaborating with other agents in
a multi-agent environment, the chances of finding a mutually beneficial
result is improved A prototype of the system for creating study plans
is available. Initial empirical results show that after a short learning
period, the system is able to form a study plan which requires minimal
attention from the students.},

and scheduling},
JOURNAL = {International Journal of Production Research},

VOLUME = {44},
PAGES = {1331--1351},
NUMBER = {7},
ABSTRACT = {This paper presents the development of an agent-based negotiation
approach to integrate process planning and scheduling (IPPS) in a
job shop kind of flexible manufacturing environment. The agent-based
system comprises two types of agents, part agents and machine agents,
to represent parts and machines respectively. For each part, all
feasible manufacturing processes and routings are recorded as alternative
process plans. Similarly, alternative machines for an operation are
also considered. With regard to the scheduling requirements and the
alternative process plans of a part, the proposed agent-based IPPS
system aims to specify the process routing and to assign the manufacturing
resources effectively. To establish task allocations, the part and
machine agents have to engage in bidding. Bids are evaluated in accordance
with a currency function which considers an agent's multi-objectives
and IPPS parameters. A negotiation protocol is developed for negotiations
between the part agents and the machine agents. The protocol is modified
from the contract net protocol to cater for the multiple-task and
many-to-many negotiations in this paper. An agent-based framework
is established to simulate the proposed IPPS approach. Experiments
are conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed system.
The performance measures, including makespan and flowtime, are compared
with those of a search technique based on a co-evolutionary algorithm.},

ABSTRACT = {We consider a homogeneous cooperative multiagent system organized
as a multiply sectioned Bayesian network (MSBN). Earlier work has
shown that (1) multiagent MSBNs can be applied to distributed interpretation
tasks; and (2) a distributed communication operation can be used
to ensure the global consistency among agents. In this paper, we
address the following problem: During a communication operation,
each agent is unavailable to process new evidence for a time interval
(called off-line time). We consider the minimization of total length
of off-line time of the entire system. To concentrate on the factors
affecting the off-line time, we abstract communication in MSBNs into
a graphical model for off-line time study. Using the model, we present
the optimal schedules when communication is initiated from an arbitrarily
selected agent. We show now the optimal schedules can be constructed
in a distributed fashion.}

ABSTRACT = {To achieve fully autonomy of deep space spacecraft, onboard planning
is a crucial technology. Though, lots of successful applications
about it in spacecraft operations have recently been used in real
or experimental flight, the inherent distribution and concurrency
of the spacecraft subsystem was not taken into consideration. To
improve the efficiency of planning system, a multi-agent planning
system (MAPS) of autonomous spacecraft is proposed in this paper.
MAPS subdivides the search space into some small ones and every PA
manages and operates in its own space. With the help of planning
manager agent (PMA), all of the planning agents communicate and cooperate
with each other to produce partial plan which satisfied all the constraints
of the system. To be capable of describing simultaneous activity,
continue time, resource and temporal constraints in MAPS, a new planning
formal model is given firstly. As the application of this architecture,
an MAPS prototype system for deep spacecraft, which is realized with
Java language, is designed. © 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

ABSTRACT = {The dynamics of resource contention in multiagent systems with imperfect
information can be extremely complex. It was shown by Hogg and Huberman
that when agents can follow different strategies in a system with
resource contention, it is possible to render otherwise unstable
and chaotic behavior into equilibrium. In a number of computer experiments
we explore this mechanism and find the existence of bursty behavior
which sporadically punctuates the existing equilibrium. This phenomenon
is shown to arise out of the underlying fluctuations of the multiagent
system. This mechanism of equilibria punctuated by bursts of erratic
activity appears to be quite general in systems where agents explore
strategies in search of local improvements.}

JOURNAL = {Networks and Spatial Economics},
YEAR = {2005},
VOLUME = {5},
PAGES = {147--178},
NUMBER = {2},
ABSTRACT = {Due to similarities in terms of network structure and interactions
among them, most infrastructure systems can be viewed as coupled
layers of a generalized transportation network in which the passenger,
freight, data, water, and energy flows are the commodities in the
different layers. The coupling is due to the varying degrees of interactions
among these layers in terms of shared physical networks, budgetary
constraints, socio-economic environments, environmental concerns,
information/other resources, and in particular, functional interdependencies.
However, these interactions are normally ignored in the engineering
planning, design and analysis of infrastructure systems. Identifying
and understanding these interactions using a holistic perspective
can lead to more efficient infrastructure systems. This paper presents
a preliminary network flow equilibrium model of dynamic multi-layer
infrastructure networks in the form of a differential game involving
two essential time scales. In particular, three coupled network layers
- automobiles, urban freight and data - are modeled as being comprised
of Cournot-Nash dynamic agents. An agent-based simulation solution
structure is introduced to solve the flow equilibrium and optimal
budget allocation problem for these three layers under the assumption
of a super authority that oversees investments in the infrastructure
of all three technologies and thereby creates a dynamic Stackelberg
leader-follower game. © Springer Science+Business Media, Inc. 2005.},
