This book was released on 2000 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LE TRAVAIL PRESENTE DANS CETTE THESE S'INSCRIT DANS LE CADRE D'UNE DEMARCHE METHODIQUE POUR LA CONSTRUCTION DE SPECIFICATIONS FORMELLES DE SYSTEMES MULTI-AGENTS. L'IDEE DE BASE EST DE DEFINIR DE TELS SYSTEMES COMME UN ENSEMBLE D'ENTITES METTANT EN OEUVRE DES COMPORTEMENTS GENERIQUES, DES ROLES, ENTRE LESQUELS DES INTERACTIONS SONT SPECIFIEES. CES ROLES ET CES INTERACTIONS SONT STRUCTURES EN UNITES APPELEES ORGANISATIONS. POUR CONCEVOIR LES SPECIFICATIONS DEDUITES DE CETTE DEMARCHE, UN LANGAGE D'EXPRESSION D'OBJETS ACTIFS ET REACTIFS EST PROPOSE. CE LANGAGE EST BASE SUR L'UTILISATION DE DEUX FORMALISMES, OBJECT-Z ET STATECHARTS. LA COMPOSITION DE CES FORMALISMES FAIT L'OBJET D'UNE ETUDE ET SE DECOMPOSE EN UN ENSEMBLE DE REGLES QUI AUTORISE LEUR INTEGRATION SYNTAXIQUE ET SEMANTIQUE. CE LANGAGE MULTI-FORMALISME EST CARACTERISE PAR : UN POUVOIR D'EXPRESSION SUFFISANT POUR SPECIFIER LES DIFFERENTS ASPECTS DES SMA, DES OUTILS POUR ANALYSER UNE SPECIFICATION ET LA POSSIBILITE DE RAFFINEMENTS POUR ABOUTIR A UNE SPECIFICATION PROCHE D'UNE IMPLEMENTATION. NOTRE DEMARCHE DE SPECIFICATION DE SYSTEMES MULTI-AGENTS S'INSCRIT DANS UN PROCESSUS DE PROTOTYPAGE ET DE VERIFICATION. LE PROTOTYPAGE REALISE GRACE A L'ANIMATION DES STATECHARTS PERMET DE VALIDER LA SPECIFICATION PAR RAPPORT AU COMPORTEMENT ATTENDU DU SYSTEME. LA VERIFICATION EST RENDU POSSIBLE PAR L'EXPRESSION DE LA SEMANTIQUE DU LANGAGE MULTI-FORMALISMES AVEC DES SYSTEMES DE TRANSITIONS ET A L'UTILISATION DE CES SYSTEMES DE TRANSITIONS PAR DES LOGICIELS ADEQUATS. LA SPECIFICATION D'UN SYSTEME MULTI-AGENTS EST BASE SUR UN FRAMEWORK EXPRIME AVEC LE LANGAGE MULTI-FORMALISME QUI FORMALISE LES CONCEPTS DE ROLE, INTERACTION ET ORGANISATION. NOUS CONCRETISONS CETTE ETUDE PAR LA SPECIFICATION DE DEUX SYSTEMES MULTI-AGENTS SUR LESQUELLES NOUS METTONS EN OEUVRE LE PROTOTYPAGE ET LA VERIFICATION.
Download or read book From Theory to Practice in Multi Agent Systems written by Barbara Dunin-Keplicz and published by Springer. This book was released on 2003-08-03 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains the papers selected for presentation at CEEMAS 2001. The wo- shop was the fourth in a series of international conferences devoted to autonomous agents and multi-agent systems organized in Central-Eastern Europe. Its predecessors wereCEEMAS’99andDAIMAS’97,whichtookplaceinSt. Petersburg,Russia,aswell as DIMAS’95, which took place in Cracow, Poland. Organizers of all these events made efforts to make them wide-open to participants from all over the world. This would have been impossible without some help from friendly centers in the Czech Republic, England, France, Japan, and The Netherlands. DIMAS’95 featured papers from 15 countries, while CEEMAS’99 from 18 co- tries. A total of 61 papers were submitted to CEEMAS 2001 from 17 countries. Out of these papers, 31 were selected for regular presentation, while 14 were quali ed as posters. The motto of the meeting was “Diversity is the core of multi-agent systems". This variety of subjects was clearly visible in the CEEMAS 2001 program, addressing the following major areas of multi-agent systems: – Organizations and social aspects of multi-agent systems – Agent and multi-agent system architectures, models, and formalisms – Communication languages, protocols, and negotiation – Applications of multi-agent systems – Agent and multi-agent development tools – Theoretical foundations of DistributedAI – Learning in multi-agent systems The richness of workshop subjects was ensured thanks to the CEEMAS 2001 contributing authors as well as the keynote speakers.

This book was released on 2005 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La conception de systèmes réactifs répond à des impératifs de correction logique (le système fait ce qu'il doit) et de correction temporelle (le système se conforme à un ensemble de contraintes temporelles). Nous proposons dans cet article une approche globale de conception de systèmes réactifs adaptatifs, c'est à dire adaptant dynamiquement leur architecture en fonction du contexte. Pour représenter le comportement des agents composant le système, nous utilisons le formalisme des automates temporisés, ce qui permet d'évaluer à priori les propriétés du système (en termes de correction logique et temporelle), grâce à des techniques de model-checking et de simulation. Des outils de génération automatique de code, que nous avons développés, nous permettent ensuite de produire rapidement, à partir du modèle, un prototype multi-agents opérationnel qui satisfait les mêmes propriétés.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The impact of technology on society is clear and unmistakeable. The influence of society on technology is more subtle. The 13 essays in this book have been written by a diverse group of scholars united by a common interest in creating a new field - the sociology of technology. They draw on a wide array of case studies - from cooking stoves to missile systems, from 15th-century Portugal to today's Al labs - to outline an original research program based on a synthesis of ideas from the social studies of science and the history of technology. Together they affirm the need for a study of technology that gives equal weight to technical, social, economic, and political questions"--Back cover.
