  • An Introduction to MultiAgent Systemsby Michael Wooldridge

    John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 2002; US$ 60.00

    This is the first textbook to be explicitly designed for use as a course text for an undergraduate/graduate course on multi-agent systems. Assuming only a basic understanding of computer science, this text provides an introduction to all the main issues in the theory and practice of intelligent agents and multi-agent systems. * The companion Web Site includes sample exercises, lecture slidest and hyperlinks to software referred to in the book * Introduces agents, explains what agents are, how they are constructed and how they can be made to co-operate effectively with one another in large-scale systems * Introduces the main issues surrounding the design of intelligent agents * Introduces a number of typical applications for agent technology more...

  • From Brows to Trustby Zsófia Ruttkay

    Springer 2004; US$ 169.00

    Embodied conversational agents (ECAs) are autonomous software entities with human-like appearance and communication skills. These agents can take on a number of different roles, for example, as an assistant, tutor, information provider, or customer service agent. They may also simply represent or entertain a user. The precise nature and benefits of different characteristics of ECAs requires careful investigation. Questions range from the function of an eyebrow raise to mechanisms for assessing and improving ECA trustworthiness. This book will help experts and designers in the specification and development of applications incorporating ECAs. Part 1 provides guidelines for evaluation methodologies and the identification of design and evaluation... more...

  • Developing Intelligent Agent Systemsby Lin Padgham; Michael Winikoff

    John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 2005; US$ 90.00

    Build your own intelligent agent system… Intelligent agent technology is a tool of modern computer science that can be used to engineer complex computer programmes that behave rationally in dynamic and changing environments. Applications range from small programmes that intelligently search the Web buying and selling goods via electronic commerce, to autonomous space probes.  This powerful technology is not widely used, however, as developing intelligent agent software requires high levels of training and skill. The authors of this book have developed and tested a methodology and tools for developing intelligent agent systems. With this methodology ( Prometheus ) developers can start agent-oriented designs and implementations... more...

  • Cognition and Multi-Agent Interactionby Ron Sun

    Cambridge University Press 2005; US$ 30.00

    This book explores the intersection between cognitive sciences and social sciences. In particular, it explores the intersection between individual cognitive modeling and modeling of multi-agent interaction (social stimulation) and that the interaction may be more significant than either alone. more...

  • Intelligent Technologiesby V. Kvasnicka; J. Pospíchal; P. Sincák

    IOS Press 2002; US$ 104.00

    This work includes theoretical and applicational papers in the field of neural networks, fuzzy systems and mainly evolutionary computations which application potential was increased by progress in computer power. more...

  • Mobile Agentsby Peter Braun; Wilhelm R. Rossak

    Elsevier 2004; US$ 65.95

    Mobile agents are software nomads that act as your personal representative, working autonomously through networks. They are able to visit network nodes directly using available computing power and are not limited by platform. This emerging field is now poised to become a cornerstone for new Web-based ubiquitous computing environments. Mobile Agents provides a practical introduction to mobile agent technology and surveys the state of the art in mobile agent research. Students and researchers can use the book as an introduction to the concepts and possibilities of this field and as an overview of ongoing research. Developers can use it to identify the capabilities of the technology to decide if mobile agents are the right solution for them.... more...

  • Developing Multi-Agent Systems with JADEby Fabio Luigi Bellifemine; Giovanni Caire; Dominic Greenwood

    John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 2007; US$ 110.00

    Learn how to employ JADE to build multi-agent systems! JADE (Java Agent DEvelopment framework) is a middleware for the development of applications, both in the mobile and fixed environment, based on the Peer-to-Peer intelligent autonomous agent approach. JADE enables developers to implement and deploy multi-agent systems, including agents running on wireless networks and limited-resource devices. Developing Multi-Agent Systems with JADE is a practical guide to using JADE. The text will give an introduction to agent technologies and the JADE Platform, before proceeding to give a comprehensive guide to programming with JADE. Basic features such as creating agents, agent tasks, agent communication, agent discovery and GUIs are covered, as... more...
