Title :
Adaptability in cooperative systems: merging flexibility and performance
Author_Institution :

Abstract :
In the complex work environments of modern industrial and administrative organisations, the problems of articulating distributed activities are at a high order of complexity: both high flexibility and performance are needed. The design of adaptive systems can provide a suitable solution to these problems. Adaptability is supported at two levels using both the principles and methodologies of integrated knowledge based systems and distributed artificial intelligence systems
