The DESIRE Research Programme A Project of the Research Group Agent Technology Contents: Aim of the research programme Overview of the results Applications Publications A general introduction to the research activities of our group can be found here Attention: from April 26 to May 2, 2000, the Department of Artificial Intelligence organizes a 5-day course on the design of intelligent multi-agent systems, based on DESIRE. Information can be found here Aim of the research programme The DESIRE research programme focusses on the study of compositional multi-agent systems for complex (and often distributed) tasks and development methods for these systems. Such systems model and support users in coordinating and performing complex cooperative tasks (e.g., design projects, distributed process control). In this research programme the agent metaphor has been adopted as a point of departure: a complex task can be modelled as a composition of a number of tasks, each of which is performed by one or more agents; these agents can have the form of automated systems or human agents (users). To support the development of such systems a framework is required that necessarily supports all phases of development: task and knowledge analysis (including requirements analysis and conceptual modelling), formal specification, operationalisation, verification and validation. A major aim is to provide a modelling framework for the development of such compositional multi-agent systems at a high conceptual level, supported by a software environment.

The Mexican sierra [fish] has "XVII-15-IX" spines in the dorsal fin. These can easily be counted ... We could, if we wished, describe the sierra thus: "D. XVII-15-IX; A. II-15-IX," but we could see the fish alive and swimming, feel it plunge against the lines, drag it threshing over the rail, and even finally eat it. And there is no reason why either approach should be inaccurate. Spine-count description need not suffer because another approach is also used. Perhaps, out of the two approaches we thought there might emerge a picture more complete and even more accurate that either alone could produce. John Steinbeck, novelist, with Edward Ricketts, marine biologist (1941) Complexity Discussion Group NEW BOOK: In Into the Cool the authors unravel the intricacies of cosmology, meteorology, chemistry, ecology and even the mysteries of human aging in an unexpected but accessible and entertaining manner. It's all very simple. It's all very complex. The book careens between these poles like a pinball in urgent play, until the reader is forced, willy-nilly, to think in terms of energy flow, gradients, and The Second Law. This turns out to be something of a delight, like using a new tool specially sharpened and specifically made for that job that we all assume when we first ask "why?"

ECCS-WWW is the IEEE Technical Segment Committee's attempt to organize information about it and its activities into an easy to use hypertext, hypermedia format. This WWW entry is still under construction and is updated regularly. Please check out our What's New? for information on changed items. Contents Technical Backgrond Purpose Current Activities Volunteers Chairs and Endorsing Organizations Complete List of Volunteers Invitation to New Volunteers and Interested Parties Issues of the IEEE TSC ECCS Electronic Newsletter Technical Background We thus define the engineering of complex computer systems as all activities pertinent to specifying, designing, prototyping, building, testing, operating, maintaining, and evolving of complex computer systems. While in the past, relatively non-complex ``traditional'' systems sufficed for most computer control applications, the new and emerging demands of applications and the evolution of computer architectures and networks now essentially ``force'' systems to be complex, given our current understanding how to engineer these systems. Complex computer systems are found in almost every industry. These include industrial process control, aerospace and defense, transportation and communications, energy and utilities, medical and health, commercial data processing, and others. Unfortunately, the current state-of-the-art in research and technology has clearly fallen far behind the requirements of industrial, commercial and government complex computer systems.

152. Distributed Rovers Project investigates the complex challenges surrounding distributed rovers, small basic agents interoperating to create emergent intelligent behaviour. Such systems can cope well in adverse situations, being composed of relatively cheap robotic devices working in unison, capable of recovering from partial failure. http://www-aig.jpl.nasa.gov/public/planning/dist-rovers/

Background top This project develops architectures and technologies for command and control of multi-rover groups for planetary exploration. AI Technology top Planning and Scheduling Multi-agent Systems Artificial Economies Problem top Whether they are spacecraft, probes or rovers, coordinating multiple distributed agents introduces unique challenges for automated planning and other supporting technology (Mataric 1995; Parker 1998). Issues arise concerning interfaces between agents, communication bandwidth, group command and control, and onboard capabilities. For example, a certain level of communication capabilities will need to be assigned to each, possibly limiting the amount of information that can be shared between the rovers (and ground). The mission design will need to include a "chain of command" for the team of spacecraft/rovers, indicating which rovers are controlled directly from the ground, and which are controlled by other rovers or orbiting/landed spacecraft. Finally, the onboard capabilities will need to be considered, including computing power and onboard data storage capacity. This will limit the level of autonomy each of the rovers can have. Impact top While it is up to mission designers to determine the optimal number of rovers for a given mission, multiple rovers have three types of advantages over single rover approaches: force multiplication, simultaneous presence and system redundancy.
