The correct management of resources that can become unavailable over time and the efficient (in terms of both cost and time) re-allocation of the services they provided before becoming unavailable, is an open problem that arises in a wide range of application domains. Despite to some differences, many scenarios spanning very different domains, from logistics to industrial automation, from telecommunication to water systems, may be considered as instances of a more general situation, and the actions to take in order to solve the unavailability problem follow similar patterns.

Abstract
The correct management of resources that can become unavailable over time and the efficient (in terms of both cost and time) re-allocation of the services they provided before becoming unavailable, is an open problem that arises in a wide range of application domains. Despite to some differences, many scenarios spanning very different domains, from logistics to industrial automation, from telecommunication to water systems, may be considered as instances of a more general situation, and the actions to take in order to solve the unavailability problem follow similar patterns. In this paper we discuss the implementation of a multiagent system for solving unavailability problems in an artificial - although realistic - scenario which takes inspiration from to the electricity power network domain.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
