Definition Of

Efficient operation of the integrated management information systems (IMISs), especially multi-agent systems, is related to their ability to automatically process collective knowledge. On the basis of this knowledge the decision-making process is realized in the business organizations. This paper presents issues related to framework for acquiring and acquisition subprocesses in a collective knowledge of business organization processing in IMIS. The main novelty of the developed framework is the coverage of all the areas of operation of an organization. Additionally, the inter-area knowledge for automatic strategic-level decision-making has been taken into consideration. The main improvements of this framework are that it allows for processing of the whole collective knowledge of business organization and it can be directly implemented in IMIS.

Virtual Structures

The emergence of new forms of business organization due to the development of the latest information technologies leads to the need to find adequate ways to manage virtual structures. This article discusses the features of multi-agent artificial intelligence systems and the possibilities of their application in virtual organizations. The concept of a multi-agent system is proposed, which will improve the management processes of a virtual organization. The developed algorithm is adaptive and can be used in various virtual organizations for self-development of their management systems and achieving their goals.

Definition Of

This paper proposes a new hierarchical design method for the specification and the verification of multi agent systems (MAS). For this purpose, the authors propose the model of Refinable Recursive Petri Nets (RRPN) under a maximality semantics. In this model, a notion of undefined transitions is considered. The underlying semantics model is the Abstract Maximality-based Labeled Transition System (AMLTS). Hence, the model supports a definition of a hierarchical design methodology. The example of goods transportation is used for illustrating the approach. For the system assessment, the properties are expressed in CTL logic and verified using the verification environment FOCOVE (Formal Concurrency Verification Environment).

Complete Specification

Multi-agent systems can very naturally be viewed as computational organisations. For this reason, we believe organisational abstractions offer a promising set of metaphors and models that can be exploited in the analysis and design of such systems. To this end, the concept of role models is increasingly being used to specify and design multi-agent systems. However, this is not the full picture. In this paper we introduce three additional organisational concepts — organisational rules, organisational structures, and organisational patterns — and discuss why we believe they are necessary for the complete specification of computational organisations. In particular, we focus on the concept of organisational rules and introduce a formalism, based on temporal logic, to specify them. This formalism is then used to drive the definition of the organisational structure and the identification of the organisational patterns. Finally, the paper sketches some guidelines for a methodology for agent-oriented systems based on our expanded set of organisational abstractions.

 When a person visits an unknown large city having multiple interesting locations, it is not so easy for him to find one location that is lively and convenient to visit in a given time-frame. To overcome such a problem, this paper proposes to make use of two technologies: smartphones, equipped with sensors for reading GPS coordinates; and multi-agent systems, providing assistance to users and gathering collective knowledge. Data collected by means of devices are analysed and organised in such a way to find locations that could be of immediate interest to people. Proposed agents gather opinions from several users, in terms of scores quantifying the level of satisfaction on visiting some place on a given time-frame. While gathering such an opinion, a solution is put into place to preserve user privacy (his location). Suggestions are made to potentially interested users by selecting for them locations according to closeness and satisfaction scores. In this approach, interesting locations emerge from the analysis of data gathered, hence scores and suggestions can be available for any large city in any place, provided that enough people hand data to the system. Moreover, such places are found dynamically according to people behaviour and preferences.

This paper is the synthesis of joint work realised in a technical forum group within the AgentLink III NoE framework, which elaborated on issues concerning self-organization and emergence in multi-agent systems (MAS). The work concluded on a common definition of the concepts of self-organization and emergence in MAS and the associated properties and characteristics. Also it developed towards an approach for selecting self-organization mechanisms using a number of selected reference case studies and a set of evaluation criteria.
