A conceptual framework for agent spawning
Multi-agent systems are subject to performance bottlenecks in cases where agents cannot perform tasks by themselves due to agent overload, insufficient resources or network constraints. Solutions to such problems include distributing tasks to other agents or migrating to remote hosts. In this paper,...
