Abstract

There is a growing need for improving the fault tolerance in multiagent systems (MASs). In this thesis, we investigate it in two parts. The first part presents a monitoring approach which detects whether the design and implementation of a MAS is correct. The second part introduces agent-oriented architectures which aim to maximise multiagent survivability. We then present several heuristics to measure the survivability of a given MAS.
