Summary
In this paper we look into three approaches, based on: Game Theory, Auction and Consensus methods, to combine information from multiple sources. As originally introduced, they are conceptualized using an agent metaphor and implemented using a JADE agent platform. Preliminary performance comparison completes the presentation.
