Abstract
As social entities, intelligent agents need to collaborate with others regardless of whether they are cooperative or self interested. Compared with cooperative agents, collaborations among self-interested agents are more complex and dynamic due to the selfish features. Self-interested agents are impelled to cooperate with others by their individual goals. In an agent team composed of self-interested agents, "common" goals of agents may change to be conflicted as the environment changes.
