The most immediately relevant stream of research explicitly investigates machine models of competitive situations by using the techniques of evolutionary computation in systems of artificial agents. Rosenchein, J.S. and G. Zlotkin, Designing Conventions for Automated Negotiations . Similarly , we believe that rather than being completely general purpose, frameworks should be oriented towards particular domain classes.
State oriented domains are a superset of taskoriented domains.
An example of a worth oriented domain is a multi agent version of the tileworld. Agents push tiles into locations in a grid, some of which belong to particular agents. The optimal state for an agent is the one in which all the tiles are in its locations. J.S. Rosenscein and G. Zlotkin. Designing Conventions for Automated Negotiation .
