Abstract

We show that the search technique of dynamic programming models a form of multiagent computation characterized by the interaction of cooperating/competing agents. For this reason, dynamic programming algorithms can be easily implemented in an object-oriented concurrent language environment. We illustrate this by a simple example implemented in the object-oriented concurrent language LO, involving the finding of the best path from the initial to the final vertex in a network where the connecting edges are associated with cost weights.
