Agent Modifications Sample Clauses

Agent Modifications. In work package 1 eight different agent types were defined. These were based on the common needs of different use cases where each of the types fulfils distinct functionalities which collaboratively can achieve the desired use case’s business function. However, when the details of the agents were further explored with the use cases it appeared that this ideal situation does not necessarily hold up in practice. In some cases conceptual agents may be combined into single technical implementations. For example, an agent which combines the planning and process orchestration capabilities within one system. Especially in the situation, when the planning is done on a smaller scale with less resources, this can provide a more concise algorithm. This combination does not compromise either of the capabilities, but instead creates an agent which is able to handle more specific tasks. This consideration on the scoping of components is broader than the MAS4AI project, as can be seen in discussions on planning and control systems for example. Another possible direction is simplification of an agent. In certain cases, it may not be needed to have for example a complete resource agent, as the actual resource does not possess any specific smart capabilities or does not require any pre/post processing. In such a case the active AAS of the agent can be simplified to the form of a passive AAS containing only the relevant resource data and omitting the agent specific models. This would still enable the other agents to keep the same references as if there was an actual resource agent, since the AAS elements holding the resource information are still going to be present.

  • Contract Modifications It is understood that changes are inherent in operations of the type covered by this contract. The number of changes, the scope of those changes, and the impact they have on the progress of the original operations cannot be defined at this time. The PURCHASER is notified that changes are anticipated and that there will be no compensation made to the PURCHASER directly related to the number of changes made. Each change will be evaluated for extension of contract time and increase or decrease in compensation based on its own merit. STATE reserves the right to make, at any time during the contract, such modifications as are necessary or desirable; provided such modifications shall not change the character of the operations to be done nor increase the cost, unless such operations or cost increase is approved in writing by PURCHASER. Any modifications so made shall not invalidate this contract nor release PURCHASER of obligations under the performance bond. PURCHASER agrees to do the modified operations as if it had been a part of the original contract. If any change under this section causes an increase or decrease in the PURCHASER's cost of, or the time required for the performance of any part of the operations, the PURCHASER must submit a written statement setting forth the nature and specific extent of the claim. Such claim shall include all time and cost impacts against the contract and be submitted as soon as possible, but no later than 30 days after receipt of any written notice of modification of the contract. If the PURCHASER discovers site conditions which differ materially from what was represented in the contract or from conditions that would normally be expected to exist and be inherent to the activities defined in the contract, the PURCHASER shall notify the STATE's Authorized Representative immediately and before the area has been disturbed. The STATE's Authorized Representative will investigate the area and make a determination as to whether or not the conditions differ materially from either the conditions stated in the contract or those which could reasonably be expected in execution of this particular contract. If it is determined that a differing site condition exists, any compensation or credit will be determined based on an analysis by STATE's Authorized Representative. If the PURCHASER does not concur with the decision of the STATE's Authorized Representative and/or believes that it is entitled to additional compensation, the PURCHASER may proceed to file a claim. All claims shall be submitted in writing and shall include a detailed, factual statement of the basis of the claim, pertinent dates, contract provisions which support or allow the claim, reference to or copies of any documents which support the claim, the exact dollar value of the claim, and specific time extension requested for the claim. If the claim involves operations to be completed by subcontractors, the PURCHASER will analyze and evaluate the merits of the subcontractor's claim. PURCHASER shall forward the subcontractor's claim and PURCHASER's evaluation of such claim to STATE's Authorized Representative. The STATE's Authorized Representative will not consider direct claims from subcontractors, suppliers, manufacturers, or others not a party to this contract. The decision of the STATE shall be final and binding unless the PURCHASER requests mediation.
