Decentralized semantic service discovery based on homophily for self-adaptive service-oriented MAS
Elena del Val · 2011
The aim of my PhD thesis is to propose a decentralized system for service management based on the social concept of homophily. The system provides self-organizing features, and it is established and maintained without supervision. Each agent manages autonomously events such as searching services, joining or leaving the system, which reduces the service management and the structure maintenance cost. Agents, considering only local information, carry out all these tasks.
