This paper reviews agents and multiagent systems from the point of view of reusability and it provides a formalization of reusability that exploits some very basic agent-oriented concepts. In particular, we mo

Unfortunately, there are not always backup agents ready to replace unavailable ones. In this case, the MAS must reorganize itself in or

In this work we describe our experiences in the identification, production and application of patterns for agents. Some patterns are described together with the classification criteria and documentation approach we adopt. Upon them, we

Complex systems are described as sets of non-linearly interacting components making multi-agent systems particularly suitable for modelling and designing such systems. The notion of emergence is explicited and used to derive ways

Using Swarm Intelligence in Linda Systemsheir success comes from the fact that agents are simple and the interaction with the environment and neighboring agents is local in nature. We describe how swarm intelligence can be used in the implementation of a Linda-based system called .. We argue that SwarmLinda achieves many desired characteri
