Abstract

Timed coordination is an important issue in the developement of multi-agent systems. However, introducing a formalism for modelling time and achieving coordination while respecting the autonomy of the agents is still a challenge. This paper describes a formalism for a timed coordination mechanism which conciliates the "free thinking" of an agent.
