We consider project scheduling problems on a decentralized decisional framework, where a project is partitioned into different sub-projects each one managed by a local decision maker. A coordination mechanism has to be considered to resolve shared resource allocation conflicts between different sub-projects. We propose a multi agent system model to represent the decentralized decisional problem, where each agent interacts with the others using an auction mechanism to perform his/her activities and to resolve the conflicts derived from the limited shared resources capacity.

Abstract
We consider project scheduling problems on a decentralized decisional framework, where a project is partitioned into different sub-projects each one managed by a local decision maker. A coordination mechanism has to be considered to resolve shared resource allocation conflicts between different sub-projects. We propose a multi agent system model to represent the decentralized decisional problem, where each agent interacts with the others using an auction mechanism to perform his/her activities and to resolve the conflicts derived from the limited shared resources capacity.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
