Overview of the Subjects
SSIM
DEI / FEUP
The concept of smart cities is presented and the role of citizens in the smartification process is discussed.A special emphasis is given to understanding whether smart mobility and intelligent transportation systems (ITS) are synonymous or there is a dichotomy between the concepts. In addition to being a central concern in ITS, citizens become active participants in smart mobility: issues and opportunities for citizens' engagement in generating disruptive innovation in mobility systems and devising solutions are presented, and particularly motivated and explored within the research agenda of the so-called artificial transportation systems in a rather social perspective. With the advent of autonomous vehicles and the emergence of the concept of cooperative intelligent transportation systems (C-ITS), this session will also introduce such concepts and motivate a reflection on their role in the generation of new transportation paradigms and scenarios towards more efficient, greener, safer, and social mobility solutions.

• MAS Simulation vs Development
– Multi-Agent based Simulation (MABS)
• Computer simulation where entities
are modeled and implemented as agents
• Agent-based simulation tools
Simulation and Developmentof Multi-Agent Systems
Henrique Cardoso
27
– Multi-Agent System
• System composed of autonomous, intelligent and interacting
agents
• Development tools
– Support for communication, distribution, standards (FIPA)
– Multi-threaded, limited scalability, not appropriate for
simulation
– MABS can be useful while developing MAS applications
SSIM
DEI / FEUP
• Bridge simulation and development of MAS– Develop high-performance simulations using MAS
development features: “MAS-like MABS”
– Convert MABS into MAS automatically (write-once, simulate and deploy)
• Approach– Simple API for JADE-based Simulations (SAJaS)
• Light implementation of most JADE features
• Integration with simulation framework (e.g. Repast)
– MAS Simulation to Development (MASSim2Dev)
• Eclipse plugin conversion tool: JADE SAJaS

• Proposals:
– Problem Resolution Strategies Applied on Airline
Operations Control Centers (MASDIMA):
• New best strategies (through the use of heuristics or meta-
heuristics) to solve the problems that appear during daily
operations and integrate it in our negotiation protocol.
• Possible methods to use: Ant Colony Optimization (ACO),
Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Genetic Algorithms
(GA), others …
• Include Argumentation during Communication
• Additional Information: This work can be used totally or
partially on the dissertation: “Studies of Evolutionary
Computation applied on Operational Control Centers”,
presented by LIACC/NIADR

• Proposals: – Study of strategies to solve problems in Airline
Operational Control Centers (OCC)• To solve the problems that arise in airline OCCs (flight delays,
missing crewmember, etc.) by trying diverse solutions using:
– Ant Colony Optimization
– Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO)
– Genetic Algorithms
– Others....
– Learning in Negotiation applied to OCCs• Give existing agents a learning mechanism used in proposal
formulation during negotiation.
• The learning method to use is Q-Learning.
• Q-Learning can be used to:
– Learn the best actions to use (domain operators) in problem solving..
