Strategic Interactions in Multiagent Systems

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Self-interested, or competitive, multiagent systems are settings where multiple agents interact while potentially having different goals and information. Some of the key issues in these systems are i) how and when should agents coordinate their actions and decisions and ii) how to design protocols to handle the agents' self-interest and achieve system-wide desirable goals. Examples of self-interested multiagent systems abound, ranging from voting to game-playing, and ideas from the multiagent systems research community have had significant impact in applications ranging from port security to the Smart Grid.
