An Investigation of the Use of Metaphor in the Rube Paradigm - Hopkins (2001)   (Correct)

....the metaphors permeate the paradigms. For example, the artificial neural network [28] evolutionary computing [29] and swarm based computing [30] are three computing paradigms that are inspired and permeated by biological metaphors. The metaphors that permeate data flow and agent based computing [31], which are touched upon elsewhere in this thesis in some detail, are described below. 3.3.2.1 The data flow metaphor Data flow is a fairly common computing paradigm for designing and diagrammatically representing programs. A data flow diagram is a network representation of a system that depicts ....

....no agreed upon, formal definition for the term agent in a computational context, a functional definition is provided here through a review of the various characteristics and abilities that have been used to describe agents in research literature. Some of these characteristics and abilities include [31, 32]: the autonomous representation of another entity, the ability to communicate, interact, and collaborate with other entities, the ability to perceive, move through, react to, and alter a complex, dynamic environment, the ability to reason, learn, and adapt, and . the ability to take ....

An Agent-Oriented Approach to Industrial Automation Systems - Wagner (2002)   (Correct)

....lies the reason for a significant skepticalness of plant operating managers against radical technical innovation. Since the early nineties, cooperative multi agent systems and intelligent agents are of increasing concern with respect to the software engineering of large scale distributed systems [13]. For an efficient introduction and a wide acceptance in the automation domain, new software concepts and software systems based on them have to support legacy systems to a large extent. Thus a number of constraints have to be considered: The new approach has to be adopted in a pragmatic ....

A Minimal Calculus for Situated Multi-Agent Systems - Hartonas (2003)   (Correct)

....models, implementation issues, often by extension of some objectoriented language etc. Such interest in theoretical research on multi agent systems, and in thereby empowered technologies, is practically very much justifiable, given the wide range of possible applications (cf for a review e.g. [15]) from information management and electronic commerce, to air tra#c control, telecommunications and manufacturing process control systems. What seems to be largely missing in agent research is any systematic attempt to provide a clean semantic approach to agent oriented computing, analogous to ....

Integrating Peer-to-Peer Networking and Computing in.. - Overeinder.. (2002)   (Correct)

....intelligent is associated [35] Agents are processes that are autonomous and pro active (capable of making their own decisions when they like) that can interact with objects and services, communicate with other agents and may be mobile. Agents interact with objects. Objects are passive [15]. In other words, an object needs to be invoked in order to perform a function, and performs only during an invocation. Agents, on the other hand, receive messages and autonomously decide if, when, and how to (re )act. The only way for one agent to influence another agent is by sending a message, ....

Workflow Modeling using Proclets - van der Aalst, Barthelmess, Ellis.. (2000)   (Correct)

....follows. First, we motivate our approach by clearly identifying the problems encountered when modeling the reviewing process of a conference. Then we present the framework which is based on Petri nets [25, 26] and inspired by concepts originating from object orientation [8, 27] agent orientation [18], and the language action perspective [14, 34 36] In Section 4, we model the reviewing process using our framework. Finally, we compare the framework with existing approaches and conclude with our plans for future research. 2 Motivating Example: Organizing a Conference The process of selecting ....

....of an entire process are broken up into smaller interacting proclets, i.e. there is a shift from control to communication. The framework is based on a solid process modeling technique (Petri nets [25, 26] extended with 6 concepts originating from object orientation [8, 27] agent orientation [18], and the language action perspective [14, 34 36] In the remainder of this section we present the four main components of our framework: proclets, channels, naming service, and actors. 3.1 Proclets A proclet class describes the life cycle of proclet instances. A proclet class can be ....

....the help of such diagrammatic notations. The method is illustrated by an example of the evolutionary multiagent ecosystem Amalthaea developed at MIT Media Lab. 1. Introduction Agent technology is widely perceived to be a viable solution for large scale industrial and commercial applications [1,2]. However, it has not been widely adopted by IT industry. It has been recognised that the lack of rigour is one of the major factors hampering the wide scale adoption of agent technology [3] Much work has been done on formal modelling of agents rational behaviour by logic systems and game ....

Towards a Logic of Rational Agency - van der Hoek, Wooldridge (2003)   (5 citations)  Self-citation (Wooldridge)   (Correct)

....There has recently been much interest in the use of mathematical logic for developing formal theories of such agents. Much of this interest arises from the fact that rational agents are increasingly being recognised as an important concept in com puter science and artificial intelligence [78, 40]. Logical theories of rational agency view agents as practical reasoning systems, deciding moment by moment which action to perform next, given the beliefs they have about the world and their desires with respect to how they would like the world to be. In this article, we survey the state of the ....

Agent-Based Control Systems - Jennings, Bussmann   Self-citation (Jennings)   (Correct)

....demonstrate the efficacy of the agent oriented software engineering approach [2] the most compelling argument would be to show quantitatively how its adoption improved the development process in a range of (control system) projects. However, although several applications have been deployed (see [3] [4] for overviews) such data are simply not available (as is the case for other contemporary software engineering approaches such as patterns, application frame works, and component ware) Given this fact, the best that can be achieved is a qualitative justification for why agent oriented ....

.... and dyna mism, agent researchers have devised protocols that enable organizational groupings to be formed and disbanded [ 15] specified mechanisms to ensure that groupings act together in a coherent fashion [ 11 ] 10] and developed structures to characterize the macro behavior of collectives [3], 8] Figure 2. Canonical view of an agent based system Drawing these points together (Fig. 2) it can be seen that (i) adopting an agent oriented approach to software engineering means decomposing the problem into multiple, autonomous components that can act and interact in flexible ways to ....
