Duality in Multi-Commodity Market Computations
- In search for general equilibrium in multi-commodity markets, price-oriented schemes are normally used. That is, a set of prices (one price for each commodity) is updated until supply meets demand for each commodity. It is well known that in a two-commodity market resource-oriented schemes are conce

Making a Case for Multi-Agent Systems
- Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) promise to offer solutions to problems where established, older paradigms fall short. To be able to keep promises, however, in-depth studies of advantages and weaknesses of MAS solutions versus conventional ones in practical applications are needed. In this paper we offe

An Ontology Approach to Product Disassembly
- In recent years, growing ecological concern has prompted for `design for environment'. One way to achieve this is to design products that are easy to disassemble, because this improves the ability to reuse or recycle parts of a product. This paper presents a computational theory for product mo

Ontology Engineering, Scientific Method, and the Research Agenda
- Abstract. The call for a “focus on content ” in ontology research by Nicola Guarino and Mark Musen in their launching statement of the journal Applied Ontology has quite some implications and ramifications. We reflectively discuss ontology engineering as a scientific discipline, and we put this into

Power load management as a computational market
- Power load management enables energy utilities to reduce peak loads and thereby save money. Due to the large number of different loads, power load management is a complicated optimization problem. We present a new decentralized approach to this problem by modeling direct load management as a computa

Early Requirements Determination for Networked Value Constellations: A Business Ontology Approach
- Many enterprises organize themselves as networked value constellations to jointly deliver products and services. Such constellations are facilitated by recent advances in IT, specifically various Internet and Web technologies. Before embarking upon information systems design and dealing with the tec

Does e-Business Modeling Really Help?
- Many innovative e-business ideas are hardly understood by their stakeholders when articulated just by words. To create a better, also shared, understanding, and to enhance confidence in the feasibility of such verbal ideas, we have developed a model-based e-business development approach called e

Decentralized Markets versus Central Control: A Comparative Study
- Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) promise to offer solutions to problems where established, older paradigms fall short. In order to validate such claims that are repeatedly made in software agent publications, empirical in-depth studies of advantages and weaknesses of multi-agent solutions versus convention
