Abstract

Role assignment is an important task in a multi-agent system. There are many constraints in the process of role assignment. This paper formally identifies and defines the role assignment problems with conflicting agent constraints; proposes useful algorithms; conducts experiments by randomly creating agent qualifications and constraints; compares the two algorithms' performances based on experimental results, and indicates future research activities. The contribution of this work includes: formally defining the problem of role assignment with conflicting agents, and proposing a satisfactory algorithm.
