Abstract

This paper presents a fuzzy logic based controller (Multi-Agents System Controller (MASC)) which regulates the number of agents released to the network on a Multi-Agents Systems (MASs). A fuzzy logic (FL) model for the controller is as presented. The controller is a two-inputs-one-output system. The controllability is based on the network size (NTZ) and the available bandwidth (ABD) which are the inputs to the controller, the controller's output is number of agents (ANG). The model was simulated using SIMULINK software. The simulation result is presented and it shows that ABD is the major constraint for the number of agents released to the network.
