A Light-Weight Message Transport Framework for Multi-Agent based Simulation.
Donghang Guo, Eunice E. Santos, Landon Fraser, Megan Olsen · 2005
Multi-agent based simulations have been shown to have particular utility in large-scale social and biological systems. To deliver a realistic simulation for such complex systems, agents should be light-weight and interagent communication should be efficient and scalable. In this paper, we propose a new light-weight message transport framework for building efficient, flexible, and scalable inter-agent communication in multi-agent based simulations. We provide both theoretical analysis and initial performance results for validation.
