Abstract

The notion of autonomy is becoming a central and relevant topic in Agent and Multi Agent theories and applications. In very simple terms we can say that the concept of autonomy implies three main subjects (each of which should be thought in a very general sense): the main agent (the autonomy of which is considered), the resource (about which the first subject is considered autonomous), and a secondary agent (from which the main agent is considered autonomous).
