Decentralised Runtime Norm Synthesis

The process of determining the appropriate set of norms, referred to as synthesis, for a multiagent system has predominantly been carried out offline by the designers of the system. Of recent, there have been a few approaches that synthesise norms online utilising a centralised mechanism. The research presented here aims to propose a mechanism for decentralised runtime (online) norm synthesis through the use of agents dedicated to synthesising norms based on participating agents' requests.
