A Modelling Approach for Agent Based Systems Design
A modelling approach based on the Soft Systems Methodology (SSM) is proposed as a first stage in develo** agent based systems. The SSMapproach enables a better conceptualisation of the system being developed...

Infrastructure Issues and Themes for Scalable Multi-agent Systems
Various toolkits have been developed in the research community for constructing multi-agent systems. These toolkits differ in the types of programming languages they support, particular agent services they can...

Coordinating Learning Agents via Utility Assignment
In this paper, a coordination technique is described for fully cooperative learning based multiagent systems, based on the Collective Intelligence work by Wolpert et al. Our work focuses on a practical impleme...

Self-Organisation: Paradigms and Applications
A self-organising system functions without central control, and through contextual local interactions. Components achieve a simple task individually, but a complex collective behaviour emerges from their mutua...

Supporting FIPA Interoperability for Legacy Multi-agent Systems
The conversion of a Multi-Agent System (MAS) into a FIPA-compliant system (i.e. one that adheres to FIPA standards) is important to support interoperability across different MAS. We provide an approach to unde...

Supporting Program Indexing and Querying in Source Code Digital Libraries
As a greater number of software developers make their source code available, there is a need to store such open-source applications in a library and facilitate searching over this digital library. To achieve t...

Integration of Descriptors for Software Component Retrieval
Software component retrieval is an important task in software reuse; after all, components must be found before they can be reused. In this paper, we propose the use of compound index to integrate two types of...

Classification of Software Artifacts Based on Structural Information
Classification of software artifacts, in particularly the source code files, are currently performed by administrator of a repository. Even though there exist automated classification on these repositories, ne...

Dynamic Workflow Adaptation over Adaptive Infrastructures
There is emerging interest in many scientific disciplines to deal with “dynamic” data, arising from sensors and scientific instruments, which require workflow graphs that can be dynamically adapted – as new da...

Measuring the Effectiveness of Throttled Data Transfers on Data-Intensive Workflows
In data intensive workflows, which often involve files, transfer between tasks is typically accomplished as fast as the network links allow, and once transferred, the files are buffered/stored at their destina...
