Pecuniary Externalities of Futures Trading and Constrained Suboptimality
Author: Makoto Yano
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages :
Book Description
This study investigates the constrained suboptimality of a futures market equilibrium in incomplete markets. It explains the constrained suboptimality in terms of the pecuniary externalities that futures trading may cause by affecting spot relative prices. It presents the decomposition of a pecuniary externality into hedging and speculative factors and, by these factors, characterizes the constrained suboptimality. This characterization gives interpretable sufficient conditions which can exclude, from a futures market equilibrium, Hart's pathology that the opening of a new market makes every agent worse off or, equivalently, that the closing of an existing market makes every agent better off.

Principles of Practice in Multi-Agent Systems
Author: Jung-Jin Yang
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642111602
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 671
Book Description
Agents are software processes that perceive and act in an environment, processing their perceptions to make intelligent decisions about actions to achieve their goals. Multi-agent systems have multiple agents that work in the same environment to achieve either joint or conflicting goals. Agent computing and technology is an exciting, emerging paradigm expected to play a key role in many society-changing practices from disaster response to manufacturing to agriculture. Agent and mul- agent researchers are focused on building working systems that bring together a broad range of technical areas from market theory to software engineering to user interfaces. Agent systems are expected to operate in real-world environments, with all the challenges complex environments present. After 11 successful PRIMA workshops/conferences (Pacific-Rim International Conference/Workshop on Multi-Agents), PRIMA became a new conference titled “International Conference on Principles of Practice in Multi-Agent Systems” in 2009. With over 100 submissions, an acceptance rate for full papers of 25% and 50% for posters, a demonstration session, an industry track, a RoboCup competition and workshops and tutorials, PRIMA has become an important venue for multi-agent research. Papers submitted are from all parts of the world, though with a higher representation of Pacific Rim countries than other major multi-agent research forums. This volume presents 34 high-quality and exciting technical papers on multimedia research and an additional 18 poster papers that give brief views on exciting research.

Distributed Constraint Problem Solving and Reasoning in Multi-agent Systems
Author: Weixiong Zhang
Publisher: IOS Press
ISBN: 9781586034566
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
Distributed and multi-agent systems are becoming more and more the focus of attention in artificial intelligence research and have already found their way into many practical applications. An important prerequisite for their success is an ability to flexibly adapt their behavior via intelligent cooperation. Successful reasoning about and within a multiagent system is therefore paramount to achieve intelligent behavior. Distributed Constraint Satisfaction Problems (DCSPs) and Distributed Constraint Optimization (minimization) Problems (DCOPs) are perhaps ubiquitous in distributed systems in dynamic environments. Many important problems in distributed environments and systems, such as action coordination, task scheduling and resource allocation, can be formulated and solved as DCSPs and DCOPs. Therefore, techniques for solving DCSPs and DCOPs as well as strategies for automated reasoning in distributed systems are indispensable tools in the research areas of distributed and multi-agent systems. They also provide promising frameworks to deal with the increasingly diverse range of distributed real world problems emerging from the fast evolution of communication technologies.The volume is divided in two parts. One part contains papers on distributed constraint problems in multi-agent systems. The other part presents papers on Agents and Automated Reasoning.

Admissible Consensus and Consensualization for Singular Multi-agent Systems
Author: Jianxiang Xi
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 9811969906
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 285
Book Description
This book explores admissible consensus analysis and design problems concerning singular multi-agent systems, addressing various impact factors including time delays, external disturbances, switching topologies, protocol states, topology structures, and performance constraint. It also discusses the state-space decomposition method, a key technique that can decompose the motions of singular multi-agent systems into two parts: the relative motion and the whole motion. The relative motion is independent of the whole motion. Further, it describes the admissible consensus analysis and determination of the design criteria for different impact factors using the Lyapunov method, the linear matrix inequality tool, and the generalized Riccati equation method. This book is a valuable reference resource for graduate students of control theory and engineering and researchers in the field of multi-agent systems.
