Abstract
In this paper the E-JABAT-based A-Team architecture dedicated for solving the RCPSP/max problem instances is proposed and experimentally validated. Computational experiment involves evaluation of agent performance within the A-Team. The paper contains the RCPSP/ max problem formulation, description of the E-JABAT architecture for solving the RCPSP/max problem instances and the discussion of the computational experiment results.
