Development of Multi-Agent Systems Infrastructures: A Practical Approach

• Presents models and languages for multi-agent systems (MAS) development
• Includes three key sections covering: modeling and languages for multi-agent systems; entity deployment and interaction; and practical considerations for implementing contemporary MAS frameworks
• Provides a hands-on method for developing working MAS solutions across a variety of applications
• Showcases solutions in a structured, modular format so they can be replicated and used independently from one another
