      Argumentation Based Decision Making for Autonomous Agents 

      Kakas, Antonis C.; Moraïtis, Pavlos (2003)
      This paper presents an argumentation based framework to support the decision making of an agent within a modular architecture for agents. The proposed argumentation framework is dynamic, with arguments and their strength ...

      A cost mechanism for fair pricing of resource usage 

      Mavronicolas, Marios; Panagopoulou, P. N.; Spirakis, Paul G. (2005)
      We propose a simple and intuitive cost mechanism which assigns costs for the competitive usage of m resources by n selfish agents. Each agent has an individual demand

      Crafting the mind of prosocs agents 

      Bracciali, A.; Endriss, U.; Demetriou, Neophytos; Kakas, Antonis C.; Lu, W.; Stathis, Kostas (2006)
      PROSOCS agents are software agents that are built according to the KGP model of agency. KGP is used as a model for the mind of the agent, so that the agent can act autonomously using a collection of logic theories, providing ...

      Distributed function calculation via linear iterative strategies in the presence of malicious agents 

      Sundaram, S.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N. (2011)
      Given a network of interconnected nodes, each with its own value (such as a measurement, position, vote, or other data), we develop a distributed strategy that enables some or all of the nodes to calculate any arbitrary ...

      Extended semantics and optimization algorithms for CP-networks 

      Brafman, R. I.; Dimopoulos, Yannis (2004)
      Preference elicitation is a serious bottleneck in many decision support applications and agent specification tasks. Ceteris paribus (CP)-nets were designed to make the process of preference elicitation simpler and more ...

      Extending SATPLAN to multiple agents 

      Dimopoulos, Yannis; Hashmi, M. A.; Moraïtis, Pavlos (2011)
      Multi-agent planning is a core issue in the multi-agent systems field. In this work we focus on the coordination of multiple agents in a setting where agents are able to achieve individual goals that may be either independent, ...

      Metacomputing with mobile agents 

      Evripidou, Paraskevas; Samaras, George S. (2006)
      In this paper we present Parallel Computing with Mobile Agents (PaCMAn), a mobile agent based Metacomputer that enables its users to utilize idle resources on the internet to tackle computational problems that could not ...

      Mobile agents: What about them? Did they deliver what they promised? Are they here to stay? (PANEL) 

      Samaras, George S. (2004)
      Mobile Agents have brought around a new way to perform computations and develop distributed application and it is now struggling for a visible position in the area of distributed and wireless computing. This panel explores ...

      Modeling of traffic flow of automated vehicles 

      Li, K.; Ioannou, Petros A. (2004)
      With the development of near term automatic vehicles following concepts such as intelligent cruise control (ICC) and cooperative driving, vehicles will be able to automatically follow each other in the longitudinal direction. ...

      Multi-agent coordination and cooperation through classical planning 

      Dimopoulos, Yannis; Moraïtis, Pavlos (2007)
      Multi-agent planning is a fundamental problem in multiagent systems that has acquired a variety of meanings in the relative literature. In this paper we focus on a setting where multiple agents with complementary capabilities ...

      Multiagent reinforcement learning: Spiking and nonspiking agents in the Iterated Prisoner's Dilemma 

      Vassiliades, Vassilis; Cleanthous, A.; Christodoulou, Chris C. (2011)
      This paper investigates multiagent reinforcement learning (MARL) in a general-sum game where the payoffs' structure is such that the agents are required to exploit each other in a way that benefits all agents. The contradictory ...

      PALLAS: A querying interface for pervasive computing using handheld devices 

      Polyviou, S.; Evripidou, Paraskevas; Samaras, George S. (2004)
      In this paper we describe PALLAS (PALm Logic-based Algebraic Search), a prototype architecture, design and implementation for a search interface on a portable digital assistant. PALLAS is part of the UbAgent, a middleware ...

      Personalizing Web environments on user intrinsic characteristics 

      Tsianos, Nikos; Lekkas, Zacharias; Germanakos, Panagiotis; Mourlas, Constantinos; Samaras, George S. (2008)
      Individual differences in information processing, as derived from an approach that takes into account cognitive and emotional parameters, serve as a basis for setting a theoretical framework that addresses user profiling ...

      A pragmatic and pervasive methodology to web service discovery 

      Tamani, E.; Evripidou, Paraskevas (2006)
      Service-Oriented computing can be characterized as the motivating force for interoperable web applications. Businesses that embark on service-oriented technology are inclined to an effective interoperation with other ...

      Towards a human-centered E-Commerce personalization framework 

      Belk, Marios; Germanakos, Panagiotis; Andreou, Panayiotis G.; Samaras, George S. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2016)
      This paper presents a personalization framework, namely PersonaWeb that adapts the visual and interaction design of E-Commerce Web environments based on human cognitive differences. In particular, it describes a user model ...
