“…Agents interact within a collaborative environment by providing or using services. One essential condition for a collaborative environment to become immanent is that any agent of the system may always play an active role in the elaboration of the organisation [8,5,6,7]. For instance, both system designers and expert-users may feedback their experience in the cycle of development and validation of a complex application.…”

This chapter focuses on the principle of immanence for autonomic eventbased distributed systems such as collaborative environments on the GRID. On one hand, GRID provides a sound infrastructure for coordinating distributed computing resources and Virtual Organisations (VO). On one other hand, immanence is a principle that emerges from the internal behaviour of complex systems such as social organisations. Although several existing VO models specify how to manage resources, security policies and communities of users, none of them has considered mechanisms that reflect the internal activity to constantly improve the overall system organisation. The AGORA model, proposed in 2004, has been integrated in an experimental collaborative environment platform. After several years of experimentation with communities of scientists from various domains, The AGORA architecture has been enhanced with a novel design approach for VO management. The model is a dynamic system in which the result of interactions are fed back into the system structure. The basic idea is to specify a set of mechanisms to catalyse the collective intelligence of active communities in order to enable a self-organisation of the collaborative environments.

This position paper proposes to bring together the integration of Grid and MAS with the notion of immanence. On one hand, Grid is known to be an extraordinary infrastructure for coordinating distributed computing resources and Virtual Organisations (VOs). On one other hand MAS interest focusses on complex behaviour of systems of agents. Immanence is a principle that emerges from the internal behaviour of complex systems such as social organisations. Although several existing VO models specify how to manage resource, security policies and communities of users, none of them has considered to tackle the internal self-organisation aspect of the overall system. We propose Agora, a VO model integrated in an experimental collaborative environment platform. Its architecture adopts a novel design approach, modelled as a dynamic system in which the result of agent interactions are fed back into the system structure. Since the global behaviour of such a system emerges from its internal organisation, we place the immanence principle as the main Agora contribution for self-organising Grid VOs.
