Summary form only given. In the rapidly growing mobile eco-system, mobile application security is an important aspect for many stakeholders. Mobile application development incorporates new design principles that require developers to pay attention to new methods for ensuring data security. Proper design of mobile applications and associated frastructure with alignment to security can be an effective way to increase the long-term success of your solutions.
In this paper, our goal is to propose a socially and economically viable mechanism based on the FCD principle, through which the state of traffic congestion can be detected using inbuilt capabilities of modern smart-phones.
The emergence of behavioural and structural congruence based on simple local interactions of atomic units is a fascination to the scientific community across many disciplines. The climax of behavioural congruence and emergence of behaviour is exemplified by the community life-style of ants. Each individual ant possesses the capability only to solve part of the overall puzzle while aggressively communicating in primitive methods with the spatially related neighbours to produce emergent behaviour. The primary hypothesis of this research is that the constituent atomic actions of a complex behaviour could be successfully coordinated by a collection of collaborative and autonomous agents with the use of Action Templates. The AAANTS (Adaptive Autonomous Agent colony interactions with Network Transparent Services) model was conceptualised and implemented as a platform to represent the biologically inspired coordination and learning model to test the research hypothesis. The domain of foraging in a grid-world was identified as the experimental basis to evaluate the AAANTS coordination model. The experiments demonstrated relative improvements in achieving behavioural congruence using the AAANTS model in relation to the traditional Monte-Carlo based methods.Keywords: Collective Intelligence, Action Templates, Emergent Behaviour, Reinforcement Learning, Frame Representation.doi: 10.4038/icter.v1i1.449The International Journal on Advances in ICT for Emerging Regions 2008 01 (01) : 24 - 32
