The paper describes the results of creating a model implementing an approach to coordination in multi-agent systems based on use of preference hierarchies. The purpose of that research was to create a proof-of-concept illustrating applicability of the approach. As a result, we created a formal description of a model describing competition between two rival swarms that employs the approach. We implemented the model in the form of a program, and obtained results indicating that the approach provides sustainable desirable outputs across multiple runs of the model.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
