The Environment: An Essential Abstraction for Managing Complexity in MAS-Based Manufacturing Control
[chapter]
2006
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Preserved Fulltext
Based on recent insights, we now acknowledge the environment to be an essential abstraction in MAS, allowing to a large extent managing a lot of the complexity. ...
In this paper, we aim to explicitly model the different aspects of the environment that are relevant in our MAS for manufacturing control, thus supporting the case for environments as first-class abstractions ...

A promising way of doing this is to view the environment as a rule-based infrastructure that defines reactions to events. ...
For that, two complementary viewpoints can be distinguished: subjective coordination manages intra-agent aspects while objective coordination essentially deals with inter-agent aspects. ...
