Generalising Axelrod’s Metanorms Game Through the Use of Explicit Domain-Specific Norms
Achieving social order in societies of self-interested autonomous agents is a difficult problem due to lack of trust in the actions of others and the...

Establishing norms with metanorms over interaction topologies
Norms are a valuable means of establishing coherent cooperative behaviour in decentralised systems in which there is no central authority. Axelrod’s...

Stable Configurations with (Meta)Punishing Agents
We consider an adaptation of Axelrod’s metanorm model, where a population of agents choose between cooperating and defecting in bilateral...

Establishing norms with metanorms in distributed computational systems
Norms provide a valuable mechanism for establishing coherent cooperative behaviour in decentralised systems in which there is no central authority....

Stable Configurations with (Meta)Punishing Agents
We consider an adaptation of Axelrod’s metanorm model, where a population of agents choose between cooperating and defecting in bilateral...

Cooperation-dominant Situations in SNS-norms Game on Complex and Facebook Networks
We propose an SNS-norms game to model behavioral strategies in social networking services (SNSs) and investigate the conditions required for the...

Norm emergence in multiagent systems: a viewpoint paper
Norms are utilised in agent societies to encourage acceptable behaviour by the participating agents. They can be established or revised from the...

Combining Mathematical and Simulation Approaches to Understand the Dynamics of Computer Models
This chapter shows how computer simulation and mathematical analysis can be used together to understand the dynamics of computer models. For this...

An Interactive, Generative Punch and Judy Show Using Institutions, ASP and Emotional Agents
Using Punch and Judy as a story domain, we describe an interactive puppet show, where the flow and content of the story can be influenced by the...

Evolution of Cooperation in SNS-norms Game on Complex Networks and Real Social Networks
Social networking services (SNSs) such as Facebook and Google+ are indispensable social media for a variety of social communications, but we do not...

Norm Establishment in a Single Dimension Axelrod Model
In Axelrod norm models (Axelrod, 1986), the existence of a norm is described in terms of two variables, namely Boldness and Vengefulness. This...

Norm Emergence through Dynamic Policy Adaptation in Scale Free Networks
As has been stated elsewhere, norms are a valuable means of establishing coherent cooperative behaviour in decentralised systems in which there is no...

Establishing Norms for Network Topologies
In order to establish a norm in a society of agents, metanorms have previously been proposed as a means of ensuring not that norms are complied with,...

Overcoming Omniscience for Norm Emergence in Axelrod’s Metanorm Model
Norms are a valuable mechanism for establishing coherent cooperative behaviour in decentralised systems in which no central authority exists. In this...

Compliance with Normative Systems
I will argue that the cognitive attitudes and operations involved in compliance with normative systems are usually different from those involved in...

Flexible Behaviour Regulation in Agent Based Systems
Just as in human societies, for which we have developed reasonably effective systems to organise and manage interactions in such a way as to minimise...

Social Norm Emergence in Virtual Agent Societies
The advent of virtual environments such as SecondLife call for a distributed approach for norm emergence and spreading. In open virtual environments,...

Peer Pressure as a Driver of Adaptation in Agent Societies
We consider a resource access control scenario in an open multi-agent system. We specify a mutable set of rules to determine how resource allocation...

A Computing System to Assist Business Leaders in Making Ethical Decisions
This paper explores whether it is possible to build a computing system that can make ethical decisions autonomously, and if it is possible, then what...
