Title: | Discrete-event coordination design for distributed agents | Authors: | Pham, Manh Tung. Seow, Kiam Tian. |
Keywords: | DRNTU::Engineering::Computer science and engineering | Issue Date: | 2012 | Source: | Pham, M. T., & Seow, K. T. (2012). Discrete-event coordination design for distributed agents. IEEE transactions on automation science and engineering, 9(1), 70-82. | Series/Report no.: | IEEE transactions on automation science and engineering | Abstract: | This paper presents new results on the formal design of distributed coordinating agents in a discrete-event framework. In this framework, agents are modeled to be individually equipped with a coordination module, through which they interact and communicate. In terms of existing control-theoretic concepts, we first define the concept of a coordinable language and show that it is the necessary and sufficient existence condition of coordination modules for distributed agents to achieve conformance to a prespecified interagent constraint language. Following, we present a synthesis algorithm to compute near-optimal coordination modules. An example is provided to illustrate the design synthesis using the proposed algorithm. Finally, a discussion with related work distinguishes our coordination design problem from related problems in the literature. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/100810 http://hdl.handle.net/10220/16455 |
