Give the initial state, goal test, actions/operators, and path cost for the following description. There are several possible formulations for the problem, with varying levels of detail. Pay special attention to different path costs for various actions, and conditions for when those actions are valid. The main thing is that your formulation should be precise and “hang together” so that it could actually be implemented.

With this assignment, you’ll implement a real-world problem into a simulation with JADE.(Java Agent Development Environment)
The real-World example of yours is Bank system. Entities create modules, Processes or Resources, Decisions, Routes, and Stations that may be designed and implemented as agents.
Entity numbers may be high so they may be scaled to get rid of performance problems according to a reasonable explanation.
Probability distributions (Normal, Uniform, Exponential etc.) for Interarrival times and processing times can be calculated by third-party Java libraries such as Apache Commons.
Logging created random numbers by Java and verifying them with Excel, Arena Input Analyzer or something else will be a part of this step.
Data Exchange between agents may be handled by ACLMessages.

Your code must include;
- Inline agent creation
- Several behaviors of different kinds (Ticker, Walker, etc.)…
Let's revisit our first problem, where we want to set up a series of chess matches so
we can rank six players in our class.
As we did before, we will assume that everyone keeps their chess rating a private
secret; however, when two players have a chess match, the person with the higher
rating wins 100% of the time.
But this time, we are only interested in identifying the BEST of these six players and
the WORST of these six players. (We don't care about the relative ordering or
ranking of the middle four players.)
Your goal is to devise a comparison-based algorithm that is guaranteed to identify
the player with the highest rating and the player with the lowest rating.
Because you are very strong at Algorithm Design, you know how to do this in the
most efficient way.
Here are five statements.
A. There exists an algorithm to solve this problem using 6 matches, but there does
not exist an algorithm using only 5 matches.
B. There exists an algorithm to solve this problem using 7 matches,…

The path of an email message starts with the sender and concludes with the receiver of the message. Take careful notes on everything you discover. Is there a rationale to the differences, and if so, what are they? Consider the possibility that there exist several models, each of which has a unique level of complexity (or abstraction).arrow_forwardConsidering the pseudo-code of the wait() and the signal() system calls with NO Busy waiting: a) Make your own UNIQUE and ORIGINAL simulation where 4 processes (Pi, P?, P?? and P???)1 want to enter the same critical section: at every row of the simulation show ALL interesting parameters, e.g. S.value, S.L, and make appropriate comments. The simulation must stores at least 8 rows. b) Assuming that, at time t, the process control block of Pi is in the queue of S.L: 1) Which is the current state of Pi? 2) Does Pi have a partition in Main Memory (MM)?

- Simulated annealing is an extension of hill climbing, which uses randomness to avoid getting stuck in local maxima and plateaux. a) For what types of problems will hill climbing work better than simulated annealing? In other words, when is the random part of simulated annealing not necessary? b) For what types of problems will randomly guessing the state work just as well as simulated annealing? In other words, when is the hill-climbing part of simulated annealing not necessary? c) Reasoning from your answers to parts (a) and (b) above, for what types of problems is simulated annealing a useful technique? In other terms, what assumptions about the shape of the value function are implicit in the design of simulated annealing? d) As defined in your textbook, simulated annealing returns the current state when the end of the annealing schedule is reached and if the annealing schedule is slow enough. Given that we know the value (measure of goodness) of each state we visit,…arrow_forwardYou are on the west bank of a river with a bag of corn, a goose, and a fox. There is a boat on this shore. You want to move all three of these to the other side of the river, but you can only bring one of these things at a time in the boat. If the goose is left alone with the corn, the corn will be eaten. If the fox is left alone with the goose, the goose will be eaten. Prepare a scenario for safely bringing these three items across the river by placing the following steps in the correct order. Note: to disambiguate the answer, bring the fox across the river before bringing the corn. 1 [ Choose ] 2 [ Choose ] [ Choose ] 4 [ Choose ] 5 [ Choose ] [ Choose ] Cross the river from E to W alone, for the second time Cross the river from E to W with the goose Cross the river from W to E with the goose, for the second time Cross the river from W to E with the goose, for the first time Cross the river from W to E with the corn Cross the river from E to W alone, for the first time 7 Cross the…arrow_forwardAssume we have a game that uses synchronized simulation.

- You are trying to build an autonomous robot that can play different card games based on the French deck. But before building the robot, you need to develop an approach to recognise all the cards in a French deck. A French deck consists of 52 cards, which can be categorised into four groups based on their suits: spades (4), hearts (♥), diamonds (+), and clubs (+). Each suit consists numbers from 1 to 10, and three court cards: jack, queen, and king. You had lay down all the cards on a white colour desktop, arranged them nicely before snapping a photo. After some pre-processing, the photo that you obtained is shown in Figure 2.

- Problem 1. You are playing a version of the roulette game, where the pockets are from 0 to 10and even numbers are red and odd numbers are black (0 is green).

For example, if the answer were 17/20 then enter 17/20 with no spaces or other symbols. You may reduce the fraction by cancelling factors common to the numerator and denominator but you do not need to do this. Probability of an event (2/2) What is the probability that at least one 4 appears? Write your answer as a fraction of integers. For example, if the answer were 17/20 then enter 17/20 with no spaces or other symbols.
