Holonic Multiagent Systems: A Foundation for the Organisation of Multiagent Systems
[chapter]
2003
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
But the organisation of a multiagent systems is difficult to specify at design time in the face of a changing environment. ...
This paper presents basic concepts for a theory of holonic multiagent systems to both provide a methodology for the recursive modelling of agent groups, and allow for dynamic reorganisation during runtime ...
This is especially true if we look at MAS, in which self-organisation is an important aspect. ...

A Taxonomy of Autonomy in Multiagent Organisation
[chapter]
2004
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Starting from a general definition of how to model the organisation of multiagent systems with the aid of holonic structures, we discuss design parameters for such structures. ...
The focus of this contribution is to link these design parameters with a taxonomy of different types of autonomy relevant in multiagent organisation. ...
We particularly thank him for his comments on the work in this article. ...

The Link between Autonomy and Organisation in Multiagent Systems
[chapter]
2003
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Market-based approaches have a long tradition in supporting of taskassignment multiagent systems. ...
All agents are self-interested entities that do not necessarily have a common goal; we allow them to be designed and owned by different parties, which limits the possibilities for global control in this ...

Towards a Multilevel Simulation Approach Based on Holonic Multiagent Systems
2008
Tenth International Conference on Computer Modeling and Simulation (uksim 2008)
This model is based upon Holonic Multi-Agent Systems and provides a generic scheduling model for multilevel simulations: dynamically adapting the level of simulated behaviours while being as faithful as ...
In this paper a multi-level simulation model is proposed to allowing the use of both microscopic and macroscopic techniques. ...
After a short introduction on holonic multi-agent systems and the associated organisational metamodel (section 2.1), section 2.2 details some key points on the multilevel multiagent-based simulation. ...

ADACOR: A holonic architecture for agile and adaptive manufacturing control
2006
Computers in industry (Print)
In these circumstances, the challenge is to develop manufacturing control systems with intelligence capabilities, fast adaptation to the environment changes and more robustness against the occurrence of ...
In the last decades significant changes in the manufacturing environment have been noticed: moving from a local economy towards a global economy, with markets asking for products with higher quality at ...
Adaptation by self-organisation The adaptive ADACOR mechanism emerges in a bottom-up approach, built upon the individual self-organisation of manufacturing holons. ...

An organisational approach to engineer emergence within holarchies
2010
International Journal of Agent-Oriented Software Engineering
In order to tackle this specific feature of holonic multiagent systems, the capacity concept which abstracts a know-how from its concrete realization is introduced. ...
An open issue in self-organization is how to engineer emergent behaviors. ...
A second hypothesis made in this work is that analysis, design and development use an organisational stance. ...

Holonic Crisis Handling Model for Corporate Sustainability
2017
Sustainability
We consider organizations as complex systems, and we use the holonic multiagent modelling concept to depict the emergent behaviour of these systems. ...
This behaviour must be sustainable on a long-term basis in financial, environmental, social and ethical terms. The objective of our paper is to present a conceptual model based on a holonic concept. ...
In the case of holonic multiagent systems the holons can decide if they want to be part in a holarchy, and they can leave whenever they want. ...

Self-Organisation and Emergence in MAS: An Overview
2006
Informatica (Ljubljana, Tiskana izd.)
This paper aims to define the concepts of self-organisation and emergence and to provide a state of the art survey about the different classes of self-organisation mechanisms applied in the multi-agent ...
Such systems need to operate in dynamic, heterogeneous environments and face the challenge of handling frequently changing requirements; therefore they must be flexible, robust and capable of adapting ...
In PROSA [8] the holonic organisation consists out of three types of basic holons ⎯ order holons, product holons, and resource holons. ...
