An Adaptive Trust Model for Achieving Emergent Cooperation in Ad Hoc Networks

A Coalitional Approach for Resource Distribution in Self-organizing Open Systems

“…In such models, robustness is guaranteed as a new mechanism that arises from the collective actions of many individuals that try to achieve a common goal. For example, we can see a sample through the theory of non-cooperative games [ 4 , 5 , 14 – 16 ], in which the performance of the model respond as the outcome of the collective behaviors of the agents and not just to the linear addition of the individual actions.…”

“…In this regard, the analysis presented in [ 17 ] shows how despite asymmetries in power and internal conflicts, agents are promoting the effective treatment of common resources even when it is not possible to guarantee their success in the long term. Furthermore, the proposals presented in [ 4 , 5 ] shows that we can use evolutionary computing to achieve cooperation among agents with different behaviors and also use concepts like sympathy and commitment in non-cooperative games. The results presented above show how a self-organizing system can produce a functionality using cooperation models; In [ 17 ], the coffee farming and for [ 5 ] a routing service.…”

Without show specific details in each case, we can identify that the evolution of the system behavior converges towards a cooperative group that minimizes asymmetries, even when the individual social tensions of individuals do not disappear.…”

“…( 1 ). It is important to mention that this game can produce rational strategies when a group of agents , as part of the evolutionary process [ 5 ], incorporate another group of agents in a coalitionist model. In this regard, N is a non-empty set of agents.…”

“…On the other hand, an adaptive technique allows the system to face unexpected operating conditions during the negotiation process. It is essential to mention that this work is an extension of the analysis presented in [ 4 , 5 ]. The result showed how the proposed negotiation model allows the system to achieve higher efficiency, symmetry, and invariance over time.…”
