A Model for the Structural, Functional, and Deontic Specification of Organizations in Multiagent Systems
Abstract
A Multiagent System (MAS) that explicitly represents its organization normally focuses either on the functioning or the structure of this organization. However, addressing both aspects is a prolific approach when one wants to design or describe a MAS organization. The problem is to define these aspects in such a way that they can be both assembled in a single coherent specification. The ℳOISE + model -- described here through a soccer team example -- intends to be a step in this direction since the organization is seen under three points of view: structural, functional, and deontic.
