Enabling Distributed Intelligent Systems in Open Environments through Agreement Technologies
Sascha Ossowskí · 2012
This paper summarises an invited talk given at the 14th International Symposium on Symbolic and Numeric Algorithms for Scientific Computing (SYNASC'12). It first delineates the emerging field of Agreement Technologies, sketching its main technological building blocks and relating them to each other. A scheme is proposed to organise these building blocks outside of the traditional Agreement Technologies "layer cake", providing examples of how it can be used to relate different lines of research in the field.
