✦ Synopsis


Agent technologies and multi-agent systems is an emerging field of study that is unique in the sense that all efforts to build this discipline unite knowledge from different areas of study. Developments in Intelligent Agent Technologies and Multi-Agent Systems: Concepts and Applications discusses research on emerging technologies and systems based on agent and multi-agent paradigms across various fields of science, engineering and technology. This book is a collection of work that covers conceptual frameworks, case studies, and analysis while serving as a medium of communication among researchers from academia, industry and government.<
