In this paper, we addressed the problem of modelling complex cooperative multi-agent organizations. Proposed team-based model is inspired from the Schwaninger's model of intelligent human organizations. Considering time and agents' identity features is the main important factor in the mentioned model. In our considered problem domain, rescue systems, rapid task handling is a main requirement. Proposed model supports it through fast initial team formation, greedy capability-based coalition formation, and using the nearest neighbours' resources. Adaptation via reorganization makes the model appropriate for dynamic environments.

Abstract


In this paper, we addressed the problem of modelling complex cooperative multi-agent organizations. Proposed team-based model is inspired from the Schwaninger's model of intelligent human organizations. Considering time and agents' identity features is the main important factor in the mentioned model. In our considered problem domain, rescue systems, rapid task handling is a main requirement. Proposed model supports it through fast initial team formation, greedy capability-based coalition formation, and using the nearest neighbours' resources. Adaptation via reorganization makes the model appropriate for dynamic environments.
