Multiagent Systems: Algorithmic, Game-Theoretic, and Logical Foundations

Multiagent systems are those systems that include multiple autonomous entities with either diverging information or diverging interests, or both. This comprehensive introduction to a burgeoning field is written from a computer science perspective, while bringing together ideas from operations research, game theory, economics, logic, and even philosophy and linguistics.

This exciting and pioneering new overview of multiagent systems, which are online systems composed of multiple interacting intelligent agents, i.e., online trading, offers a newly seen computer science perspective on multiagent systems, while integrating ideas from operations research, game theory, economics, logic, and even philosophy and linguistics.
