Massively Multi-Agent Systems II: International Workshop, MMAS 2018, Stockholm, Sweden, July 14, 2018, Revised Selected Papers (Lecture Notes in Computer Science Book 11422)

"This book contains revised selected and invited papers presented at the International Workshop on Massively Multi-Agent Systems, MMAS 2018, held in Stockholm, Sweden, in July 2018. The 7 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in this volume. Also included are 3 post-workshop papers. The papers discuss enabling technologies, new architectures, promising applications, and challenges of massively multi-agent systems in the era of IoT. They are organized in the following topical sections: multi-agent systems and Internet of Things; architectures for massively multi-agent systems; and applications of massively multi-agent systems" -- OhioLink Library Catalog Front Matter ....Pages i-x Front Matter ....Pages 1-1 Distributed Speaking Objects: A Case for Massive Multiagent Systems (Marco Lippi, Marco Mamei, Stefano Mariani, Franco Zambonelli)....Pages 3-20 Injecting (Micro)Intelligence in the IoT: Logic-Based Approaches for (M)MAS (Andrea Omicini, Roberta Calegari)....Pages 21-35 Integrating Internet of Services and Internet of Things from a Multiagent Perspective (Donghui Lin, Yohei Murakami, Toru Ishida)....Pages 36-49 Front Matter ....Pages 51-51 Two-Layer Architecture for Distributed Massively Multi-agent Systems (Yohei Murakami, Takao Nakaguchi, Donghui Lin, Toru Ishida)....Pages 53-65 Multi-agent Social Simulation for Social Service Design (Itsuki Noda)....Pages 66-80 Inverse Reinforcement Learning for Agents Behavior in a Crowd Simulator (Nahum Alvarez, Itsuki Noda)....Pages 81-95 FARM: Architecture for Distributed Agent-Based Social Simulations (Jim Blythe, Alexey Tregubov)....Pages 96-107 Front Matter ....Pages 109-109 Diversity in Massively Multi-agent Systems: Concepts, Implementations, and Normal Accidents (Philip Feldman, Antonio Bucchiarone)....Pages 111-129 CARAVAN: A Framework for Comprehensive Simulations on Massive Parallel Machines (Yohsuke Murase, Hiroyasu Matsushima, Itsuki Noda, Tomio Kamada)....Pages 130-143 BASIC: Towards a Blockchained Agent-Based SImulator for Cities (Luana Marrocco, Eduardo Castelló Ferrer, Antonio Bucchiarone, Arnaud Grignard, Luis Alonso, Kent Larson et al.)....Pages 144-162 Back Matter ....Pages 163-163 This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Principles and Practice of Multi-Agent Systems, PRIMA 2013, held in Dunedin, New Zealand, in December 2013. The conference was co-located with the 26th Australasian Artificial International Conference, AI 2013. The 24 revised full papers presented together with 18 short papers and 2 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 81 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on foundations of agents and multi-agent systems; agent and multi-agent system architectures; agent-oriented software engineering; agent-based modelling and simulation; cooperation/collaboration, coordination/communication; hybrid technologies, application domains; and applications. "Unifying Themes in Complex Systems is a well-established series of carefully edited conference proceedings that serve to document and archive the progress made regarding cross-fertilization in this field. The International Conference on Complex Systems (ICCS) creates a unique atmosphere for scientists from all fields, engineers, physicians, executives, and a host of other professionals, allowing them to explore common themes and applications of complex systems science. With this new volume, Unifying Themes in Complex Systems continues to establish common ground between the wide-ranging domains of complex systems science."-- Provided by publisher "Unifying Themes in Complex Systems is a well-established series of carefully edited conference proceedings that serve to document and archive the progress made regarding cross-fertilization in this field.
