Add to ORKGThis work proposes a generic approach for achieving scalability of multiagent-systems (MAS). The key to reach that goal is to introduce a self-organization mechanism allowing systems to configure themselves to any application scale and nature. Here, I shall outline such a mechanism, which can be introduced to any multi-agent system. I focus on two systems, InteRRaP and MECCA, and on two applications, the transportation domain, realized using InteRRaP agents, and a traffic telematics application modelled with MECCA agents. All systems and applications are briefly characterized in this work and relations to other fields of research are pointed out.
