A Regulation Adaptation Model for Multi-Agent Systems Open

Elena Yan, Luis G. Nardin, Olivier Boissier, Jaime Simão Sichman · 2025

In multi-agent systems (MAS), agents can be governed by regulations. Due to an ever-evolving set of exogenous or endogenous changes, the ability of MAS to adapt regulations becomes crucial. In the MAS literature, there is a lack of compreh…
