In this paper we introduce the notion of additive generator pair for overlap functions. We also study how some of the properties that can be demanded to an overlap function can be expressed in terms of its generator pair. In particular, given a continuous and positive t-norm T , we analyze the overlap functions which are obtained by the distortion of T by a pseudo-automorphism, showing that the additive generator pair of such overlap function may be given in terms of the considered pseudo-automorphism and the additive generator of T . Finally, we also consider the influence of the migrativity, homogeneity and idempotency properties for the overlap functions obtained by such distortion in terms of their respective additive generator pairs.

“…Such kind of social organization is characterized by periodic exchanges of non-economic services and the social management processes are based on periodic routines and interactions performed by the different actors [12]. For the lack of space, here we present just a simplified part of a routine of a specific role, namely, the gardener, considering just the planting scenario.…”

Periodic routines have been traditionally identified in Social Sciences as the essential component of social organizations that are persistent in time, with the temporal continuity of such routines constituting the foundation of the preservation of the social systems both between successive generations and between extant and immigrant populations. Open multiagent systems (MAS) with persistent social organizations are, thus, required to be organized around time-persistent periodic routines. In this paper we propose to make use of Coloured Petri Nets (CPN) for the specification of periodic routines that may characterize the social organization of MAS. In particular, the central notions of routine cut, selected routine cut, routine step, and routine step results, as well as the notion of satisfactory performance of a periodic routine, are defined, and illustrated through a detailed example. The notion of routine objective expectation and deviation are used for the analysis of routine performances.

“…The production is only for self consumption, so it can not be sold. The social organization of SJVG, considered as a urban ecosystem [5], [4], is characterized for allowing a lot of interactions between the participants and has been used for experiments helped by MAS-based simulation [18], [17].…”

Piaget's theory of social exchanges has been used as the basis for the analysis of interactions in Multiagent Systems, allowing the modeling of interactions as services exchange processes between pairs of agents, followed by the evaluation of those services by the agents involved, producing the so-called social exchange values. The purpose of this work is to develop a BDIFuzzy agent model for the Jason platform, with abilities to assess qualitatively, subjectively the social exchanges values originated in the provision and in the receipt of non-economic services, based on Piaget's theory of social exchanges. An application to the simulation of exchange processes in a social organization, namely, the urban vegetable garden San Jerónimo (Seville, Spain) is presented.
