A cost-oriented reorganization reasoning for multiagent systems organization transitions
Juan Miguel Alberola · Adaptive Agents and Multi-Agents Systems · 2011
Current trends in the Multiagent Systems (MAS) research community, encourage to provide models able to define organizations that can dynamically be adapted according to changes in the environment or in the organization specification. This dynamic adaptation involves modifications in the structure and behavior of a MAS, such as adding, removing or substituting components, that are done while the system is running and without bringing it down [4]. The process that changes an organization into a new one is commonly known as reorganization [5].
