New Solution for Resource Allocation Problem of Agent Teams Governed by a Leader

Previously, we had proposed a multi-agent model for simulating the differentiation between a leader and its followers. However, in higher population settings, this model suffers from the leader's loss of its functionality. To solve this problem, we designed a new method that helps the leader to survive in such situations. By making use of psychological facts, this method employed two teams of agents assigning the adequate resources to another team's leader each other. In noiseless settings, we found that this method leads to some deadlock. Adding noise prevented this deadlock, although it collapsed the leader of the other team alternately. Another negotiation model was exploited to cope with this situation. This model succeeded in solving the first problem by providing a different mechanism to maintain the leader's reputation.
