Abstract

The interest for Multi-Agents Systems (MAS) grows rapidly and especially in order to simulate and observe large and complex systems. Centralized machines do not however offer enough capacity to simulate the large models and parallel clusters can overcome these limits. Nevertheless, the use of parallel clusters implies constraints such as mono-threaded process of execution, reproducibility or coherency. In this paper, our contribution is a MPI based communication schema for Parallel and Distributed MAS (PDMAS) that fits High Performance Computing (HPC) on cluster requirements. Our communication schema thus integrates agent migration between processes and it guarantees message delivery in case of agent migration.
