Abstract

The paper deals with the problem of organisation with respect to mass multi-agent systems (mMAS). The central question is how to influence the system so that the emerged organisation is conducive to its effective operation. The analysis is supported by a case study on management of a number of agents in an evolutionary multi-agent system (EMAS).
