Abstract
Multi-agent systems (MAS) describe the relationship between several decision making agents. They are designed to solve complex problems in combining the efforts of each single agent (e.g., see [Ferber], [Wooldridge/Jennings]). Hence, multi-agent systems are typically of a distributed decision making nature and should therefore at least briefly be characterized as a specific area in DDM.
