Abstract

The article is a presentation of the research results regarding selected activity coordination mechanisms. The research was carried out independently and within the framework of a research project. Reference coordination models, which serve further simulation works, are their result. The article consists of several parts. The first part discusses the most important issues regarding coordination theory. The second part discusses activity coordination in complex systems, multi-agent systems. Selected activity coordination mechanisms and their comparisons were presented in the third part. The article is concluded with a summary.
