From [WIW-WIN-MAS-K-7] Introduction to Multiagent Systems:

Lecture “Introduction to Multiagent Systems”:

Characteristics of Multiagent Systems.
Intelligent agents and system architectures.
Agent communication and ontologies.
Distributed planning, problem solving, and learning methods in Multiagent Systems.
Simulation, game theory, and economic aspects of Multiagent Systems.
Industry applications: Multiagent Systems in logistics, supply chain management, and IT resource management.

From [WIW-WIN-MAS-1-K-7] Exercises to Multiagent Systems:

Design and prototypical implementation of solution methods with Multiagent Systems in Java or MAS development environments.
The tasks are associated with supply chain management (trading agent competition) or the coordination of service networks.

Competencies / intended learning achievements

Successful completion of this module enables students to:

Assess the possibilities of modelling interacting processes through autonomously acting individuals in distributed software systems.
Defending one’s own prototypical implementation of a solution method with Multiagent Systems.
Assess sociotechnical and economic processes in microsimulation.
Evaluate how Multiagent Systems might be beneficial, due to their modularity, for managing intercorporate decentralized processes, such as logistics or supply chain management environments.
