Abstract
Distributed sensor resource allocation problem is an important research area of multi agent systems. In this paper we propose a model of distributed resource allocation problem for distributed sensor networks. Several models based on constraint network and another model based on concept of agency, are compared. Then, constraint network formalization which are similar to resource allocation problem of agency model, is shown.
