Abstract

This paper deals with multi-agent systems coordinated via teamwork in large-scale networks. A formal model based on the Fragmented Mobile Agent Network is proposed. An agent team is described as a knowledge-based system that includes subteams consisting of coordination agents and mobile subteam members organised according to a predefined subteam coordination plan. A case study considering a scenario in which multi-operation teamwork agents upgrade software employed in a Grid network was conducted. A performance analysis based on simulations of networks with different fragment sizes and subteam coordination plans is presented.
