Pigmans, K.A.M. (author), Aldewereld, Huib (author), Dignum, M.V. (author), Doorn, N. (author)Stakeholder participation is a requirement for environmental decision-making in the European Union. Despite this, numerous instances can be seen in water governance in which stakeholders feel undervalued and unheard, thereby creating unfavourable procedural outcomes, resistance and conflict. In this article, we propose that a process of early...journal article 2019

Pigmans, K.A.M. (author), Aldewereld, Huib (author), Dignum, V (author), Doorn, N. (author)Decision-making processes involving multiple stakeholders can be rather cumbersome, turbulent and lengthy. The stance of some stakeholders, upholding their individual interests, can slowdown or even block such processes. Recent research suggests that a focus on the values of the stakeholders could benefit those decision-making processes. However...conference paper 2017

Pigmans, K.A.M. (author), Aldewereld, Huib (author), Doorn, N. (author), Dignum, V (author)Decision-making processes in policy making with multiple-stakeholders can be complex because of the technically advanced systems that are decided upon, e.g. water management systems. But the complexity is often also caused by social dependencies and interests at stake. This can lead to processes in which stakeholders firmly defend their...conference paper 2016

Aldewereld, H.M. (author), Dignum, V (author), Vasconcelos, W (author)Normative multi-agent systems offer the ability to integrate social and individual factors to provide increased levels of fidelity with respect to modelling social phenomena, such as cooperation, coordination, group decision making, and organization, in both human and artificial agent systems. An important open research issue refers to group...journal article 2016

Dignum, V. (author), Aldewereld, H.M. (author), Vasconcelos, W. (author)Norms have been used to represent desirable behaviours that software agents should exhibit in sophisticated multi-agent solutions. An important open research issue refers to group norms, i.e. norms that govern groups of agents. Depending on the interpretation, group norms may be intended to affect the group as a whole, each member of a group, or...conference paper 2015

Specifically, the project takes the concept of Single Windows (often used in the sense that governments offer a single portal or interface to which businesses can submit information, supporting re-ruse by multiple agencies and...report 2014

Pieters, W. (author), Padget, J. (author), Dechesne, F. (author), Dignum, V. (author), Aldewereld, H.M. (author)Security policies in organisations typically take the form of obligations for the employees. However, it is often unclear what the purpose of such obligations is, and how these can be integrated in the operational processes of the organisation. This can result in policies that may be either too strong or too weak, leading to unnecessary...conference paper 2013

Schmidt Jensen, A. (author), Aldewereld, H.M. (author), Dignum, M.V. (author)It is hard, if not impossible, to assume anything about agents’ behavior in a society with heterogeneous agents from different sources. Organizations are used to restrict and guide the agents’ actions such that the global objectives of the society are achieved. We discuss how agents can be supported to include organizational objectives and...conference paper 2013

Li, T. (author), Jiang, J. (author), Aldewereld, H.M. (author), de Vos, M. (author), Dignum, V. (author), Padget, J.A. (author)Within a virtual organization, more than one institution might be involved in the regulation of actors’ behavior. Each institution specifies a set of norms covering a specific aspect of the problem domain with a governance scope defining its remit. Together, they govern the participants and reflect the objectives of the organization. With actors...conference paper 2013

(author)With increasing global trade and growing emphasis on security, enhanced information sharing between actors in global supply chains is required. Currently, the data about cargo available in the supply chain does not provide a timely and accurate description of the goods. To solve this data quality issue, data should be captured upstream at the...journal article 2012

Jiang, J. (author), Aldewereld, H.M. (author), Dignum, V. (author), Tan, Y. (author)Agents interact with each other within a set of norms, which is expressed at different levels of abstraction that capture different con- texts and operationalizations. Current normative frameworks deal with norm operationalization, yet few consider the contextual aspects of norms. Moreover, most frameworks are based on the independent...conference paper 2012

(author)The organisational specification of a multi-agent system supports agents’ effectiveness in attaining their purpose, or prevent certain undesired behaviour from occurring. This requires that agents are able to find out about the organisational purpose and description and decide on its appropriateness for their own objectives. Organisational...journal article 2012
