An Investigation of the Advantages of Organization-Centered Multi-Agent Systems

摘要

Whereas classical multi-agent systems have the agent in center, there haverecently been a development towards focusing more on the organization of thesystem. This allows the designer to focus on what the system goals are, withoutconsidering how the goals should be fulfilled. This paper investigates whethertaking this approach has any clear advantages to the classical way ofimplementing multi-agent systems. The investigation is done by implementingeach type of system in the same environment in order to realize what advantagesand disadvantages each approach has.
