Coordinating Intelligent Agents -- Strategies for Discovering Coordination Needs in MultiAgent Systems -- Agent-Mediated Interaction. From Auctions to Negotiation and Argumentation -- Game Theory and Artificial Intelligence -- Rights for Multi-agent Systems -- Infrastructure Support for Agent-Based Development -- An Anthropological Approach to the Discovery of Ontologies in Multi-agent Societies -- Scalability in Multi-agent Systems: The FIPA-OS Perspective -- Agents and MAS in STaMs -- Semantics of Agent Communication: An Introduction -- Agents with Bounded Temporal Resources -- A Model of Delegation for Multi-agent Systems -- Agent Specification Using Multi-context Systems -- An Adaptive Choice of Messaging Protocol in Multi Agent Systems -- On Partially Observable MDPs and BDI Models.
Summary: This book presents revised full versions of papers contributed to UK Workshops on Multi-Agent Systems, UKMAS, during 1996 and 2000. From the early days of MAS research, the UK community has been a particularly productive one with numerous key contributions. The 15 papers by internationally reputed researchers deal with various aspects of agent technology, with a certain emphasis on foundational issues in multi-agent systems.
