Anticipative agent based system synchronization example

Abstract

The concept of feedback-anticipative control as the extension of classical Wiener paradigm is considered in the context of multi agent systems. The behavior of complex real world agents is based on the consideration of feedback information as well as on the anticipation. A linear model of the agents with a nonlinear interaction rule is proposed as the mean for the methodological conception. The results of the developed system display a periodic response. An analytical determination of periodicity conditions for individual agents was performed by the application of z-transform. Proof of system stability for the case of two interacting agents has been provided. The hyperincursivity paradigm is presented as an interesting methodological platform for further investigation of multi agent systems. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2007.
