Research of Visual Simulation Platform for Consensus Protocol of Multiagent System

设计实现了一种通用的大规模多智能体一致性协议可视化仿真平台,介绍了平台的体系结构、工作流程、详细设计与实现,最后以舆论传播为例给出了仿真平台的测试与结果分析;提出了进行系统总体性能分析所需的性能指标,给出了具体定义,从而实现了对多智能体系统性能的分析和评价。仿真平台通过设置系统主要参数和加载对应的一致性协议,能快速进行各种一致性模型的仿真验证,再现系统的演化过程,主要的设计方法是先进行系统环境的搭建,包括智能体、网络拓扑、任务目标、一致性协议等基本要素的设计,平台还能将系统演化过程进行图形化显示,并统计整个过程所消耗的资源的信息。

In this study,a general visual simulation platform was designed for large-scale multiagent system. The plat- form was introduced including the architecture, workflow, detailed design and implement. Finally a simulation and analy- sis of the platform were showed by the evolution of a krause consensus model. The definition of the system performance according to different properties was designed. The platform can finish the analysis and evaluation of the system per- formance~ The simulation of platform shows the evolution of system rapidly by setting the system parameters and loa- ding different consensus algorithms. The main method including the designs of agent, topology, task, consensus algo- rithm was introduced. The evolution of system can be showed by graphical display, and the statistical information of the resources consumed can be got.
