TL;DR
An innovative paradigm is presented that enables fully decentralized agent and workflow discovery through social relationships among LLM-based agents, as well as the dynamic creation of trusted social LLM-MAS, which will represent a mature generational leap over the two-tier operational/knowledge-based frameworks increasingly available worldwide but still disconnected and nonsynergistic.
Abstract
Recent advances in large language model-based multiagent systems (LLM-MASs) are revealing significant potential for streamlining workflows in many areas, including the Internet of Things (IoT), where their integration offers new opportunities to improve decision-making and system interaction. Nevertheless, the proliferation of large language model (LLM)-based agents worldwide creates significant challenges in identifying and selecting suitable and trusted agents to create multiagent systems (MASs) to tackle complex tasks at scale. To help address this issue, this article presents an innovative paradigm that enables fully decentralized agent and workflow discovery through social relationships among LLM-based agents, as well as the dynamic creation of trusted social LLM-MAS. A possible reference architecture with its main components is presented, and the basic relationship types that can be established among a global population of LLM agents are illustrated, as well as mechanisms that allow agents to discover peers leveraging navigable social graphs rather than centralized searches. We also discuss possible ways to achieve a trust and reputation system that leverages these social relationships to filter peer-reviewed agents. The resulting social LLM-MAS paradigm envisioned will represent a mature generational leap over the two-tier operational/knowledge-based frameworks increasingly available worldwide but still disconnected and nonsynergistic.
The analysis indicates that the promise of LLM-based agents for scalable automation, collaborative reasoning, and complex workflow execution comes with significant challenges in long-horizon reliability, evaluation standardization, communication security, cost-efficient orchestration, governance, and the interpretabili...

This work introduces a generalizable evaluation framework that maps native MAS traces into a shared space of unified collaboration graphs, enabling different methods to be evaluated under the same representation, reference set, and metric panel.
As large language models (LLMs) evolve from standalone models into collaborative agents embedded in physical systems, their reasoning and execution are increasingly distributed across wireless edge nodes. In this setting, wireless networks are experiencing a paradigm shift from only providing data connectivity to suppo...

SAIGE, a lightweight multi-agent collaboration mechanism based on Semantic-Aware Incremental Graph Evolution, is proposed, suggesting that multi-agent superiority is bounded by task structure rather than universal, and that more agents do not necessarily make a system more intelligent.

A Large Language Model (LLM) based multi-agent system that aims to pipeline complex data discovery tasks and comprehensively discusses the challenges of building such an end-to-end data discovery framework and analyze the benefits of LLMs in addressing them.
Experiments show that DEALS not only improves performance along multiple dimensions (e.g., answer accuracy and task throughput) in both homogeneous and heterogeneous agent pools, but also balances agent expertise and workload in a self-organized manner, enabling effective decentralized coordination.
