Self-Adaptive Framework (SAF) for Multi Agent Systems (MAS) Based on Biological Systems

摘要

In this paper, a self-adaptive framework (SAF) is presented for distributed systems. In this framework, the entire system reaches self-adaption with the self-adaption of the agents. The available self-adaptive systems can be modeled using this framework and also, it can be revealed whether the system reaches self-adaption or not. In this framework, an objective function is used for each agent and the entire system. Also, a state is considered for each agent that may be adapted to the new state by changing its state. The behavior of each agent depends on some parameters of the agent, its neighbors, and the environment.
