Abstract
Governing the ever growing complexity of artificial systems on the one hand requires a number of expressive abstractions and different levels of interpretation, on the other hand suggests the adoption of formal / mathematical tools to (at least partially) model and predict the system behaviour. By adopting agent-oriented abstractions as the starting point, we argue that organisation, coordination and security all insist on the same conceptual space — that is, static / dynamic relations / interactions among agents —, which also represents one of the main sources of complexity for MAS, and for artificial systems in general, as well.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
