  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. Any application operating in a distributed environment must be designed to allow for a number of idiosyncrasies including autonomy, asynchronous processing, and multiple organisational entities. The latter aspect, also known as federation, poses additional challenges such as lacking overall centralised control and/or authorities. In our work at Thales Research & Technology Netherlands (TRT-NL) we investigate this domain and construct our prototypes and demonstrators on a strong foundation in agent technology.
