Abstract

Multiagent Systems (MAS) are a software paradigm for building large scale intelligent distributed systems. Increasingly, these systems are being deployed on handheld computing devices, or on non-traditional networks such as mobile ad-hoc networks and satellite links. These systems present new challenges for computer scientists in describing the performance of a system and analyzing competing systems. This paper surveys existing metrics that can be used to describe MASes and related components, and provides a framework for analyzing MASes with a case study using DCOPolis, a distributed constraint reasoning system.
