We have to do an assignment for Multi-agent systems based on finding a problem which can be solved with agents, and solving it. I'm thinking about doing one using load balancing. The basic idea is that you have a cluster of servers providing space to do computations, and a bunch of services. Each service and server has an agent to watch it. When the service needs more power, its agent askes for it. Hopefully the whole system will regulate somehow. It needs more work, but it ought to be fun.
