1) Organization of Multiagent Systems There are different organizational structures that could work for teaming-up multiple agents. Classical forms are similar to human organization, for example . Hierarchies with a clear top-down command structure Network organization with peer agents that exchange information and negotiate about who shall do what (e.g. using a cascade of Contract Net Protocols) Team structures that subdivide the agent into groups that talk to each other intensively, without restrictions and only via clearly defined “interface” agents between groups Swarms that consist of many agents that do not directly communicate, but perceive the changes that another agent has done in its surroundings or on its appearance Consider the following scenario and discuss each of the organization types shortly sketched above whether it could be good to setup a Multiagent System solving the given problem, what advantages and disadvantages you see in applying these organization types There was an accident at a coal mine. The management assumes that human mining personal is injured, but alive and enclosed somewhere in the mine. There is a map of the mine, but it is not clear which of the tunnels can be used and which not. As there is a high risk for new breakdowns, the rescue units consists of robots who shall work as a team. Each robots is not just able to carry oxygen, water and medical equipment, but can also stabilize tunnels. That means, there are no specialist robots. Communication is not a problem between the robots in the mine, but only one robot can communicate with the surface mission control. As the overall task is time critical, a solution is needed in which the humans are found as soon as possible, other tasks such as mapping or stabilizing the tunnel system are important, but secondary Show transcribed image text
