Applications

Concrete multi-agent systems are built to realize (components of) applications. Different application classes exist, e.g. ranging from enterprise information systems to computer games, which highlight different aspects of the agent paradigm (e.g. autonomy), and require different types of agents. Furthermore, Case studies, showing how agent technology is used to realize solutions to real-world problems, give concrete examples of what did work, and what didn't. On a more abstract level, one can try to extract the general success factors for agent technology to provide generic criteria, allowing to select suitable agent-based solutions to problems of specific application domains.
