Аннотация
With the growing usage of the world-wide ICT networks, agent technologies
and multiagent systems are attracting more and more attention, as
they perform well in environments that are not necessarily well-structured
and benevolent. Looking at the problem solving capacity of multiagent
systems, emergent system behaviour is one of the most interesting
phenomena, however, there is more to multiagent systems design than
the interaction between a number of agents: For an effective system
behaviour we need structure and organisation. But the organisation
of a multiagent systems is difficult to specify at design time in
the face of a changing environment. This paper presents basic concepts
for a theory of holonic multiagent systems to both provide a methodology
for the recursive modelling of agent groups, and allow for dynamic
reorganisation during runtime.
