Course Outline

Introduction to Multi-Agent Systems

  • Overview of Multi-Agent Systems (MAS)
  • Real-world applications of MAS across various domains
  • Contrast with single-agent systems

Architectural Design for Multi-Agent Systems

  • Centralized versus decentralized architectures
  • Hybrid and layered architectural approaches
  • Development tools and frameworks (e.g., JADE, SPADE)

Agent Communication and Coordination

  • Protocols and languages for communication (e.g., FIPA ACL)
  • Coordination methods: planning, negotiation, and synchronization
  • Emergent behavior and self-organization mechanisms

Game Theory and Strategic Decision Making

  • Foundations of game theory applied to MAS
  • Cooperative versus competitive strategies
  • Techniques for resolving inter-agent conflicts

Learning Dynamics in Multi-Agent Systems

  • Reinforcement learning within MAS contexts
  • Collaborative and adversarial learning processes
  • Transfer learning and knowledge exchange among agents

Advanced Topics and Challenges

  • Scalability and performance optimization in large-scale MAS
  • Trust and security in agent communications
  • Ethical considerations and broader implications of MAS

Practical Labs

  • Building a basic MAS for resource allocation
  • Simulating communication and coordination in dynamic settings
  • Deploying MAS using frameworks such as JADE
