Abstract: The natural and social sciences have recognized for some time that when rational agents use a shared resource (a "commons") near its capacity, the resource is doomed. This is the tragedy of the commons. The same problem will also arise when agents in a distributed AI system share a resource. In this paper, we examine the tragedy of the commons as it applies to DAI and discuss several potential solutions, including conventions, privatization of the resource, and mutual coercion mutually agreed...

...social dilemmas is to privatize the resources. This is because the shared resources are in fact subject to the tragedy of the commons [Har68,Tur93]. An example of a problem with a computational dilemma is depicted in figure 3.5.4, where cars have to choose which road to...
