description

This exciting and pioneering new overview of multiagent systems offers a computer science perspective, and also integrates ideas from operations research, game theory, economics, logic, philosophy and linguistics. The authors emphasize foundations to create a broad and rigorous treatment of their subject, with thorough presentations of distributed problem solving, game theory, multiagent communication and learning, social choice, mechanism design, auctions, cooperative game theory, and modal logics of knowledge and belief. For each topic, basic concepts are introduced, examples are given, proofs of key results are offered, and algorithmic considerations are examined. An appendix covers background material in probability theory, classical logic, Markov decision processes and mathematical programming. Written by two of the leading researchers in this engaging field, this book will surely serve as the reference of choice for researchers in the fastest-growing area of computer science, and be used as a text for advanced undergraduate or graduate courses.
