TY - RPRT T1 - Scalability of multi-agent systems : proposal for a dissertation T3 - Kaiserslautern ; Saarbrücken : DFKI, 1997 A1 - Gerber,Christian Y1 - 2011/07/08 N2 - This work proposes a generic approach for achieving scalability of multi-agent-systems (MAS). The key to reach that goal is to introduce a self-organization mechanism allowing systems to configure themselves to any application scale and nature. The work outlines such a mechanism, which can be introduced to any multi-agent system. Focus is put on two systems, InteRRaP and MECCA, and on two applications, the transportation domain, realized using InteRRaP agents, and a traffic telematics application modelled with MECCA agents. All systems and applications are briefly characterized in this work and relations to other fields of research are pointed out.
