One limitation of these algorithms is that they assume each agent has only one local variable. Although simple modifications enable these algorithms to handle multiple local variables, obtained algorithms are neither efficient nor scalable to larger problems. We develop a new algorithm that can handle multiple local variables efficiently, which is based on the asynchronous weak-commitment search algorithm. In this algorithm, a bad local solution can be modified without forcing other agents to exhaustively search local problems. Also, the number of interactions among agents can be decreased since agents communicate only when they find local solutions that satisfy all of the local constraints. Experimental evaluations show that this algorithm is far more efficient than an algorithm that uses the prioritization among agents.","PeriodicalId":244857,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Conference on Multi Agent Systems (Cat.

We present an approach in which the creation of categories is part of the language formation process itself. When an agent does not have a word for a particular object it is allowed to use the existing name of another object, close to the original one as defined by an analogy function. In this way, the names in the shared lexicon that has evolved in a collective way, directly yield the different object classes. We present the results of several simulations using this model showing under what conditions the agents will develop meaningful classes. We also examine the effects of an influx and outflux of agents. Finally we discuss the prospects for models in which the classes would constitute relevant complex taxonomies.","PeriodicalId":244857,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Conference on Multi Agent Systems (Cat.

But, with one or two exceptions, notably certain types of economic modeling, it has never become a major weapon in the social scientists armoury. However, in the last few years developments in intelligent agents and multiple agent systems have sparked a new interest in computer simulation in disciplines such as economics, anthropology and sociology. The key new opportunity is that something corresponding to the cognitive processes of members of a society may now be made explicit (in agents) in models. This enables studies to be made of the relationship between agent-level and society-level phenomena in a way not previously possible. However, important and interesting methodological difficulties arise, and it is these difficulties that are the main focus of the paper.","PeriodicalId":244857,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Conference on Multi Agent Systems (Cat.

Each company has a set of trucks at their disposal. Each company should maximize the satisfaction of orders according to the availability of its trucks. The distributed AI approach is suitable for this application because of: first the complexity of a centralized scheduling algorithm and second the distributed nature of the application (companies and trucks are geographically distributed). Furthermore, the task of transportation is characterized by a high level of uncertainty regarding different factors such as the traffic density, the power of the truck used and soon that cannot be ignored. We present a suitable temporal representation of trucks taking the uncertainty of their availability into account by using the Fuzzy Characteristics Functions and an Extended Contract Net Protocol based on this representation to negotiate the delegation of orders from one company to another one.","PeriodicalId":244857,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Conference on Multi Agent Systems (Cat.

This advantage is increasingly being put to use in industrial environments, in particular, where components are provided by different companies or groups. However, in order to effectively make use of this advantage, standards are required to guide the way in which agents interact and are managed. For this purpose, the Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agents (FIPA) was established, which released its first specification, FIPA 97, in October, 1997. The paper presents an overview of the FIPA agent standardisation activities as well as the industrial field trials making use of the FIPA 97 specifications.","PeriodicalId":244857,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Conference on Multi Agent Systems (Cat.

Agents are represented as cells on a grid applying simple cultural learning rules which selectively replicate and repel memes from neighbours. The memes represent culturally learned traits but also influence resource sharing behaviours. In the experiments presented, multiple cultural groupings which become altruistic towards \"in-group\" members emerge via a form of group selection. It is demonstrated that such methods can produce more optimal societies than conventional evolutionary methods in given situations. The memetic approach is inherently distributed and dynamic, offering the possibility of application to areas such as collective robotics and software agent co-ordination.","PeriodicalId":244857,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Conference on Multi Agent Systems (Cat.

Self-interested agents may find it rational to cheat others in the market. The authors have modeled federations of digital libraries selling information to one another. In the model, cooperation emerges through endogenous incentives. They had hypothesized that a number of factors would encourage cooperation: greater familiarity with trading partners, more memory for modeling others, fewer initially misbehaving agents, lower rates of strategy exploration, smaller world sizes, and more rapidly evolving measures of the likelihood of other agents to cooperate. The simulations confirmed many of the hypotheses. However the benefits of a small world size are dependent on memory size, and the usefulness of rapidly evolving estimates of cooperation is dependent on the types of strategies employed by the agents. They suggest that it will become increasingly important to allow agents conceptually to carve their networked environment into subcommunities where familiarity and trust can emerge, as opposed to promoting indiscriminate interactions within a large society of digital agents.","PeriodicalId":244857,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Conference on Multi Agent Systems (Cat.
