- Abstract
- In building intelligent network agents, computer scientists may employ a variety of different design strategies, and their design decisions can have a significant effect on the ultimative nature of network interactions. Focuses on a particular design question, the multiple-access problem: if an agent seeking a piece of information knows of several sites that have, or might have, that information, how many queries should it issue, and when? Provides a formal analysis that demonstrates the viability of cooperative responses th this question under certain assumptions. discusses the limitations of this analysis and presents the results of experiments done using a genetic-algorithms approach in which simulated network agents 'evolve' cooperative strategies under less restrictive assumptions tham those made in the formal analysis
