The book "Multiagent Engineering" provides a comprehensive introduction to the world of multi-agent systems, which have emerged from research in the field of artificial intelligence. These systems have been a significant area of research since the 1980s and have established themselves as an independent discipline. The authors, including Stefan Kirn and other experts, illuminate the development and relevance of multi-agent systems in modern software construction. They discuss the challenges and opportunities arising from the increasing complexity and distribution of IT infrastructures. The book is aimed at professionals and students who wish to gain a deeper understanding of the principles and applications of multi-agent systems. It offers both theoretical foundations and practical insights into the implementation of these technologies in various business contexts.
