negmas.situated¶

This module defines the base classes for worlds within which multiple agents engage in situated negotiations

The Agent class encapsulates the managing entity that creates negotiators to engage in negotiations within a world Simulation in order to maximize its own total utility.

Remarks:¶

When immediate_negotiations is true, negotiations start in the same step they are registered in (they may also end in that step) and negotiation_speed_multiple steps of it are conducted. That entails that requesting a negotiation may result in new contracts in the same time-step only of immediate_negotiations is true.

Simulation steps:¶

It is possible to control the order of the simulation steps differently using the operations parameter to the world constructor. this is the default order

prepare custom stats (call _pre_step_stats)

step all existing negotiations negotiation_speed_multiple times handling any failed negotiations and creating contracts for any resulting agreements

Allow custom simulation (call simulation_step ) with stage 0

run all Entity objects registered (i.e. all agents) in the predefined simulation_order.

sign contracts that are to be signed at this step calling on_contracts_finalized / on_contract_signed as needed

execute contracts that are executable at this time-step handling any breaches

allow custom simulation steps to run (call simulation_step ) with stage 1

remove any negotiations that are completed!

update basic stats

update custom stats (call _post_step_stats)

Monitoring a simulation:¶

You can monitor a running simulation using a WorldMonitor or StatsMonitor object. The former monitors events in the world while the later monitors the statistics of the simulation. This is a list of some of the events that can be monitored by WorldMonitor . World designers can add new events either by announcing them using announce or as a side-effect of logging them using any of the log functions.

class negmas.situated.Action(type: str, params: dict)[source]¶

Bases: object

An action that an Agent can execute in a World through the Simulator.

params: dict[source]¶: Any extra parameters to be passed for the action.

type: str[source]¶: Action name.

class negmas.situated.Adapter(obj, include_adapter_type_name: bool | None = None, include_obj_type_name=True, **kwargs)[source]¶

Bases: Agent

Represents an adapter agent that makes some included object act as an agent in some world.

Parameters:

obj – The object to be adapted.
include_adapter_type_name – Whether to include the adapter type name. If None, then it will be included if it does not start with and underscore.
include_obj_type_name – Whether to include object type name in this adapter’s type name
type_postfix – A string to add to the end of the type name

Remarks:

Other than keeping an internal copy of the adapted object under obj, this class is used primarily to provide a way to give good type_name and short_type_name properties that combine the name of the adapter and the name of the enclosed object nicely.

The adapted object must be an Entity.

The World class uses the type names from this adapter whenever it needs to get a type-name (either type_name or short_type_name)

property stat_names[source]¶: Returns names of all stats available

property stats: dict[str, Any][source]¶

Stats.

Returns:: The result.

A single simulation step.

Parameters:

n_mechanisms – Number of mechanisms to step (None for all)
n_neg_steps – Number of steps for every mechanism (None to complete one simulation step)
actions – Mapping of agent IDs to their actions. The agent will be asked to act only if this is not given
neg_actions – Mapping of mechanism IDs to a negotiator action. Negotiators will be called upon to act only if no action is passed here. This is a dict with keys corresponding to mechanism IDs and values corresponding to a dict mapping a negotiator (key) to its action (value)

Remarks:

We have two modes of operation depending on n_neg_steps

n_neg_steps is None will run a single complete simulation step every call
including all negotiations and everything before and after them.

n_neg_steps is an integer will step the simulation so that the given number
of simulation steps are executed every call. The simulator will run operations before and after negotiations appropriately.

We have two modes of operation depending on n_mechanisms

n_mechanisms is None will step all negotiations according to n_neg_steps

n_mechanisms is an integer and n_neg_steps will step this number of
mechanisms in parallel every call to step.

We have a total of four modes:

n_neg_steps and n_mechanisms are both None: Each call to step corresponds
to one simulation step from start to end.

n_neg_steps and n_mechanisms are both integers: Each call to step steps n_mechanisms mechanisms by n_neg_steps steps.

n_neg_steps is None and n_mechanisms is an integer: Each call to step runs n_mechanisms according to negotiation_speed

n_neg_steps is an integer and n_mechanisms is None: Each call to step steps all mechanisms n_neg_steps steps.

Never mix calls with n_neg_steps equaling None and an integer.

Never call this method again on a world if it ever returned False on that world.
