Titre anglais : Dynamic adaptation of organisation in Multi-Agent Systems. Application to the design of Cooperative Distributed and Open System
Abstract : By examining a kind of Multi-Agent System, "Cooperative Distributed and Open Systems" (CDOSs), we identify an important property of the dependence relationships that tie agents together: they are correlated.
A survey of agent models, and in particular the Castelfranchi "social dependence" model, shows that they fail to address this issue properly.
We propose an interaction procedure that takes into account the correlation of dependence
relationships. It uses constraint satisfaction concepts, and is performed by mobile agents.
The procedure is tested on a typical CDOS: the Travel Agency system. A mobile agent platform is also built for this purpose.
Key-words : multi-agent systems, interaction, mobile agents, cooperative distributed and open systems
