The hallmark of this perspective is the idea that both human and artificial organisations are computational systems composed of networks of socially embedded, cognitive and adaptive agents. The course is aimed at exploring the implications of this view. To this end, it will focus on how to draw on computational analysis to understand the complexities of human organisations and how to use social and organisational theories to improve the design of artificial computational organisations. The course will begin by introducing the notion of agent and then it will examine the coordination mechanisms through which agents interact, communicate, negotiate and cooperate with one another. The practical component of the course will concentrate on the use of agent-based solutions in areas as diverse as industrial process control, automated negotiation and electronic commerce.
