Schmidt Jensen, A. (author), Dignum, V. (author)Open systems are characterized by a diversity of heterogeneous and autonomous agents that act according to private goals, and with a behavior that is hard to predict. They can be regulated through organizations similar to human organizations, which regulate the agents’ behavior space and describe the expected behavior of the agents. Agents need...conference paper 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

Van Oijen, J. (author), Dignum, F. (author)In this paper we propose the use of a shared social context to facilitate agent perception of social dynamics within a virtual environment. We argue that through a shared context it can be more feasible to equip agents with social behaviors and reasoning rules for social intelligence, better suited for real-time constrained serious games with...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

Van der Zwaan, J.M. (author), Dignum, M.V. (author), Jonker, C.M. (author)This paper presents a qualitative study of the supportive behavior of an Embodied Conversational Agent (ECA) that provides social support to cyberbullying victims. The results indicate that social support is conveyed. In addition, we demonstrate a method that can be utilized to evaluate embodied agents for vulnerable target audiences (e.g.,...conference paper 2013

Vanhée, L. (author), Dignum, F. (author), Ferber, J. (author)This article describes conceptual connexions between a theory of culture and of organizations. These connexions aim at determining key features that should be observed in an agent-based model integrating these aspects: we describe concepts to be considered when modeling the influence of culture on individuals and thus the global consequences of...conference paper 2013

Correlje, A.F. (author), Cuppen, E.H.W.J. (author), Dignum, M. (author), Pesch, U. (author), Taebi, B. (author)Shale gas is a relatively new technology that is embraced by some as the ‘game changer’ in energy land, and opposed by others because of its risks and other potentially negative impacts. Recent experiences in the US and Europe have shown that the technology witnesses divergent societal acceptance issues. The value-laden basis of such resistance...conference paper 2013

(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
