Agent technology has been applied to a wide range of application - mains, including e-commerce, human-computer interfaces, telecommunications, and software assistants. Multi-agent systems (MASs) and their underlying t- ories provide a more natural support for ensuring important properties such as autonomy, mobility, environment heterogeneity, organization, openness, and intelligence. As a consequence, agent-based systems are likely to provide new - proaches to dealing with the complexity of developing and maintaining modern software. However, developing robust large-scale agent-based systems will - quire new software engineering approaches. There are currently many methods and techniques for working with individual agents or with systems built using only a few agents. Unfortunately, agent-based software engineering is still in its infancy and existing software engineering approaches are unable to cope with large MASs. The complexity associated with a large MAS is considerable. When a huge number of agents interact over heterogeneous environments, various phenomena occur which are not as easy to capture as when only a few agents are working together. As the multiple software agents are highly collaborative and operate in networked environments, they have to be context-aware and deal with - vironment uncertainty. This makes their coordination and management more di?cult and increases the likelihood of exceptional situations, such as security holes, privacy violations, and unexpected global e?ects. Moreover, as users and softwareengineersdelegatemoreautonomytotheirMASs,andputmoretrustin their results, new concerns arise in real-life applications. 410 0$aLecture Notes in Computer Science,$x0302-9743 ;$v2940 606 $aSoftware engineering 606 $aComputer communication systems 606 $aComputer programming 606 $aUser interfaces (Computer systems) 606 $aArtificial intelligence 606 $aSoftware Engineering/Programming and Operating Systems$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I14002 606 $aSoftware Engineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I14029 606 $aComputer Communication Networks$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I13022 606 $aProgramming Techniques$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I14010 606 $aUser Interfaces and Human Computer Interaction$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I18067 606 $aArtificial Intelligence$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I21000 615 0$aSoftware engineering. 615 0$aComputer communication systems. 615 0$aComputer programming. 615 0$aUser interfaces (Computer systems). 615 0$aArtificial intelligence. 615 14$aSoftware Engineering/Programming and Operating Systems. 615 24$aSoftware Engineering. 615 24$aComputer Communication Networks. 615 24$aProgramming Techniques. 615 24$aUser Interfaces and Human Computer Interaction. 615 24$aArtificial Intelligence. 676 $a005.1 702 $aLucena$b Carlos$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aGarcia$b Alessandro$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aRomanovsky$b Alexander$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aCastro$b Jaelson$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aAlencar$b Paulo S.C$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 712 12$aSELMAS 2003 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996465542303316 996 $aSoftware Engineering for Multi-Agent Systems II$92223505 997 $aUNISA 999 $aThis Record contains information from the Harvard Library Bibliographic Dataset, which is provided by the Harvard Library under its Bibliographic Dataset Use Terms and includes data made available by, among others the Library of Congress
