An Investigation of the Advantages of Organization-Centered Multi-Agent Systems

Whereas classical multi-agent systems have the agent in center, there have recently been a development towards focusing more on the organization of the system. This allows the designer to focus on what the system goals are, without considering how the goals should be fulfilled. This paper investigates whether taking this approach has any clear advantages to the classical way of implementing multi-agent systems. The investigation is done by implementing each type of system in the same environment in order to realize what advantages and disadvantages each approach has.
