Abstract

The study of a multiagent system generating a new function was carried out. A coordinate solution, such as the multiagent system, is effective for complicated problems. Therefore, it is necessary for agents to behave systematically while building cooperative relations with each other. We pay attention to an entrainment phenomenon which can be seen in life phenomena, such as cardiac muscle cells or the emission of light by a firefly, as an element to promote organized behavior between agents. We suggest a new system model unlike conventional systems.
