    Self-Governing Public Decentralised Systems

    The selection of members responsible for data replication is a challenge in decentralised record-kee** systems. In ‘permissioned’ systems, this crucial task is performed by a central authority or consortium....

    Towards an Approach for Modelling Uncertain Theory of Mind in Multi-Agent Systems

    Applying Theory of Mind to multi-agent systems enables agents to model and reason about other agents’ minds. Recent work shows that this ability could increase the performance of agents, making them more effic...
