Introduction to Team Disruption Mechanisms

Authors: Andrada Voinitchi, Elizabeth Black, and Michael Luck

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 28, 2012 Imperial College Computing Student Workshop


Abstract
This paper discusses how teams can be disrupted. More specifically, it discusses the steps that need to be taken in order to fully understand team disruption and design efficient mechanisms to disrupt teams. In order to answer the high-level question of how to disrupt teams, a few other questions need to be tackled first: what is a disrupted team? What are the crucial elements that make a collection of agents function as a team? Can norms, incentives or other mechanisms be used to disrupt these elements? How would we evaluate their efficiency? We first present the ideas of team and team disruption and motivate the need for these concepts to be properly defined. Secondly, we introduce an idea of team-disruption mechanism that we will further investigate. Lastly, we provide a long-term perspective and identify contributions that our research will make in the multi-agents field.

Argumentation based Resolution of Conflicts Between Desires and Normative Goals

Authors: Sanjay Modgil and Michael Luck

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 9121, Normative Multi-Agent Systems (2009)


Abstract
Norms represent what ought to be done, and their fulfillment can be seen as benefiting the overall system, society or organisation. However, individual agent goals (desire) may conflict with system norms. If a decision to comply with a norm is determined exclusively by an agent or, conversely, if norms are rigidly enforced, then system performance may be degraded, and individual agent goals may be inappropriately obstructed. To prevent such deleterious effects we propose a general framework for argumentation-based resolution of conflicts amongst desires and norms. In this framework, arguments for and against compliance are arguments justifying rewards, respectively punishments, exacted by `enforcing' agents. The arguments are evaluated in a recent extension to Dung's abstract argumentation framework, in order that the agents can engage in metalevel argumentation as to whether the rewards and punishments have the required motivational force. We provide an example instantiation of the framework based on a logic programming formalism.

A Normative Framework for Agent-Based Systems

Authors: Fabiola Lopez y Lopez, Michael Luck, and Mark d'Inverno

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 7122, Normative Multi-agent Systems (2007)


Abstract
One of the key issues in the computational representation of open societies relates to the introduction of norms that help to cope with the heterogeneity, the autonomy and the diversity of interests among their members. Research regarding this issue presents two omissions. One is the lack of a canonical model of norms that facilitates their implementation, and that allows us to describe the processes of reasoning about norms. The other refers to considering, in the model of normative multi-agent systems, the perspective of individual agents and what they might need to effectively reason about the society in which they participate. Both are the concerns of this paper, and the main objective is to present a formal normative framework for agent-based systems that facilitates their implementation.
