Multi-agent systems and their role in future energy grids (Dagstuhl Seminar 14181)

Abstract
This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 14181 "Multi-agent systems and their role in future energy grids". A number of recent events (e.g. Fukushima, Japan, and the largest blackout in history, India) have once again increased global attention on climate change and resource depletion. The evaluation of the feasibility of current approaches for future energy generation, distribution, transportation, and consumption has become an important requirement for most countries. There is a general consensus on the need for a fundamental transformation of future energy grids. The development of an information and communication technology (ICT) support infrastructure was identified as the key challenge in the design of an end-to-end smart grid. A multiagent system, with agents located at the edges and nodes of the grid and representing the interests of end-users, distributors, and providers, enables intelligent decisions to be made at each node in the electric power distribution network (grid). The seminar fostered discussions among experts from all relevant disciplines is to develop the foundation for the necessary interdisciplinary solution from engineering, computer science, and business management. The outcome was an understanding and identification of the requirements on the information systems for future smart grids.

Cloud-based Software Crowdsourcing (Dagstuhl Seminar 13362)

Authors: Michael N. Huhns, Wei Li, and Wei-Tek Tsai

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 3, Issue 9 (2014)


Abstract
This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 13362 "Cloud-based Software Crowdsourcing". In addition to providing enormous resources and utility-based computing, clouds also enable a new software development methodology by crowdsourcing, where participants either collaborate or compete with each other to develop software. Seminar topics included crowd platforms, modeling, social issues, development processes, and verification.

Reliability of Service-Based and Agent-Based Systems

Authors: Michael N. Huhns

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 10021, Service-Oriented Architecture and (Multi-)Agent Systems Technology (2010)


Abstract
A description of the current problems of service-oriented architectures and service-oriented computing and how the solutions will come from using agent technology. That is, services will have to become more agent-like in order to succeed fully in the marketplace.
