  • Security and Anonymity in Agent Systems

    Publication

    - Year 2012

    Many agent systems have been developed and suggested for commercial application. However, in spite of the significant potential offered by the agent paradigm, the lack of such important properties as security, anonymity and untracebility especially in open dynamical environment, such as the Internet, has blocked the active implementation of agent technologies. Protecting agent systems poses a more demanding challenge comparing...

  • Multi-agent systems registration and maintenance of address mapping without agent self-registation

    Monitoring of dynamic multi-agent systems, here agents are allowed to appear and disappear, and can migrate between network nodes is a complex tasks. Applying the traditional monitoring methods is not effective, as little can be assumed in advance about such environments. It is necessary to track changes in addressing and availability of agents to create and maintain mapping between agents and their network addresses. The...

  • An application of multi-agent system for ship’s power systems design

    Publication

    - Year 2016

    Design process of transport ship power system consists of structure (topology) and component elements selection. Compliance with the requirements for static components does not guarantee optimal dynamic characteristics of entire power system. Design steps are difficult to formalize and as a consequence to this reason expert and multi-agent systems are used for solving selected design issues. In the paper distributed multi-agent...

  • History-based dynamic weight voting for multi-agent systems

    Taking decision in multi-agent systems may involve voting. Two basic voting protocols are surveyed in the paper. Then, a new history-based dynamic weight voting is proposed. This voting protocol allows for identification of the agents which contribute to the correct system decision. The proposed solution is contrasted with majority voting and with weighted average voting, to show its advantages

  • Adapting a General Tool to Monitoring Multi-Agent Systems Through Virtual Host Layer Extenstion

    Publication

    - Year 2012

    Nagios is a free software for IT infrastructure monitoring. Out-of-the-box it is not suited for monitoring multi-agent systems, because agents may dynamically join and leave the system or change roles. But Nagios' flexible configuration makes extensions possible. This paper presents and verifies Nagios configuration and extensions for monitoring multi-agent systems.

  • Trustworthiness and Subversion in Large Service- Oriented Multi-Agent Systems under Virtual Anonymity and Blind Provider Selection

    Publication

    - Year 2023

    To promote honest service provision in multi-agent systems, a Computational Trustworthiness and Rating scheme collects service ratings and computes agents' trustworthiness levels (TLs). Studies of existing schemes fail to reflect closed-loop dynamics of TLs arising from the mutual influence of agents' behavior and TLs, and to capture relevant properties. Recent simulative and analytical models produce results tied to a particular...

    Publication

    Nagios to bezpłatne oprogramowanie do monitorowania infrastruktury IT. Nie jest ono dostosowane do monitorowania systemów agentowych, gdyż agenty mogą swobodnie podejmować lub zarzucać realizację działań, czy zmieniać pełnioną rolę. Bogate możliwości konfigurowania Nagios pozwalają poszerzyć jego możliwości. Artykuł przedstawia i weryfikuje konfigurację oraz rozszerzenie Nagios, umożliwiające monitorowanie systemów agentowych.
