Social Co-ordination among Autonomous Problem-Solving Agents

摘要: Co-ordination is the glue that binds activities of autonomous problem-solving agents together into a functional whole. mechanisms for distributed usually rely on central coordinator orchestrates agent behaviour or just replicate centralised mechanism among many agents. Social co-ordination decentralised mechanism, in which mutual adaptation emerges from interrelation agents' self-interests. The few existent models social are based either sociologie economic findings. Still, they refer to heterogeneous societies and rarely concerned with activities. In this paper we present formal framework unifies sociological approach co-ordination. We show how model can be used determine outcome within systems illustrate by an example.
