Abstract

This chapter has the goal of showing how multi-agent systems can be a suitable means for supporting the development and the composition of services in dynamic and complex environments. In particular, the chapter copes with the problem of developing services in the field of social networks. After an introduction on the relationships between multi-agent systems, services, and social networks, the chapter describes how multi-agent systems can support the interaction and the collaboration among the members of a social network through a set of active services.
