1998.
Keywords:

| Abstract: |
"A central issue in the design of cooperative multiagent systems is how to coordinate the behavior of the agents to meet the goals of the designer. Traditionally, this has been accomplished by hand-coding the coordination strategies. However, this task is complex due to the interactions that can take place among agents. Recent work in the area has focused on how strategies can be learned. Yet, many of these systems suffer from convergence, complexity and performance problems. The paper presents a new approach for learning multiagent coordination strategies that addresses these issues. The effectiveness of the technique is demonstrated using a synthetic domain and the predator and prey pursuit problem." |

| Abstract: |
"We describe a platform called IMPACT to support multiagent interactions. The platform provides a set of servers (yellow pages, thesaurus, registration, type, and interface) that facilitate agent interoperability in an application independent manner. In IMPACT agents have an associated set of service descriptions, specifying the services they provide. We develop an HTML-like language for such service descriptions. When an agent wishes to identify another agent that provides a service, the requested service must be matched, using a metric approach, against existing service descriptions. We provide a formal framework within which this may be done, and develop algorithms to compute the k nearest matches, as well as all matches within a given distance from the requested service. We report on experiments evaluating our algorithms with large data sets. (2 References)." |
