A. Rodríguez Aguilar
I am a tenured scientist at IIIA where I am a member of the
Department of Multi-agent Systems. My major research interest is the control
and organisation of multi-agent systems. To contribute to this general research
issue, I have been concentrated on the following topics:
multi-agent resource allocation
electronic institutions (topic of my dissertation
under the supervision of Professor Carles
Sierra)
self-* systems
distributed constraint optimization
My research interest founds and
guides the following activities:
