In this blog, you will read what is Property Management System and Multi-agent System and their different characteristics and works. Some info's of this blog came from other internet sources(see sources after each information) and below are my review about the topics. :)
Property management system (PMS) is usually used in real estate, manufacturing, logistics, intellectual property, government or in hospitality industry.
Property management system (PMS) is usually used in real estate, manufacturing, logistics, intellectual property, government or in hospitality industry.
In hospitality industry, Property management is used in guest bookings, check in/out, reservations, night auditing, yield management and other hotel operations.
There are different types of PMS, so that companies could choose which system best fits their needs.
PMS has different benefits and this are as follows:
Store and access all of your data in one central location
Due to the fragmented nature of the real estate industry, most firms have pieced together multiple applications in an attempt to satisfy their administrative needs. This typically results in numerous sources of data that are not linked together and must be manually integrated and analyzed. This is generally done on a daily basis at best and usually by a staff person or consultant who has had to engineer stopgap solutions to deal with these inherent shortcomings. iRealtyManager.com provides a better property management system which houses all your data in one database where all key Property Management processes are fully integrated and can be completed, by a single or multiple persons, using the same program.
Real-time access to your data
Since most property management systems have data which resides in several places, users cannot access all the information when they need it. Especially problematic is reconciling data from a central site with regional data, and regional data back to the corporate office. Because our property management system is an internet based solution all data can be accessed and updated real-time, which means data reconciliation is no longer necessary. Everyone accessing your records via our property management system will see the same information.

Consolidate multiple softwares into one database
Using dissimilar software applications makes being able to view a complete picture of your finances, or management needs nearly impossible. iRealtyManager.com provides a better, fully integrated property management solution. For example, you can automatically do a large-scale mailing that's completely integrated into Microsoft Word and customize each mailing for each tenant.

One single uniform graphical user interface
Most DOS text-based non-integrated systems require you and your employees to figure out how to use each system individually and remember all the different ways to access data. Some systems use hosts of codes; others use hot keys and you must commit each process to memory. Clearly, this is quite inefficient for effective commercial property management since you have to train yourself as well as any new employees. How overwhelming must it be to remember all of the convoluted ways to complete even the most routine tasks. iRealtyManager's internet based application alleviates the need to switch between DOS text-based applications and Windows systems. Because in iRealtyManager's web-based property management system, only one user interface is necessary.

Rapid deployment
Our property management system can be deployed rapidly and provisioned easily, since our customers do not have to spend time installing or maintaining any software, servers, networking equipment, security products or other infrastructure hardware necessary to ensure a scalable and reliable service. The average time that a customer requires to deploy our service is significantly shorter than traditional property management software deployments. We also offer consulting and training services to assist customers in quickly deploying and optimizing their use of our service.
Enable high levels of user adoption
We designed our service to be easy-to-use and intuitive. Our property management system contains many tools and features recognizable to users of popular websites such as: Amazon.com, eBay and Yahoo!. It has a more familiar interface than typical Property Management applications. As a result, our users do not require substantial training on how to use and benefit from our service. We conduct extensive surveys of our users to gauge their experiences with our property management software, so that we may determine potential areas of improvement. In addition, because of the nature of our service, we receive automatic feedback as to which features customers find most useful.
Lower total cost of ownership
We enable customers to achieve significant savings relative to the traditional software model. Our application enables customers to automate many commercial property management processes without having to make large, risky or upfront investments in software; hardware; implementation services, or additional IT staff. In addition, because all upgrades are implemented by our company, on our servers they automatically become a part of our service and therefore, benefit all of our customers immediately.
Secure, scalable and reliable delivery platform
The delivery platform for our service has been designed to provide our customers with high levels of reliability, performance and security. The IT systems within our data center have fail-over redundancy. We havebuilt a comprehensive security infrastructure, including firewalls, intrusion detection systems and encryption for transmissions over the Internet, which we monitor and test on a regular basis. We construct and maintain a multi-tenant application architecture that has been designed to enable our service to scale securely, reliably and cost-effectively to tens of thousands of units, and millions of users. The structural design of our multi-tenant application maintains the integrity and separation of customer information while still permitting all customers to use the same application functionality simultaneously. Our service also enables us to segment access privileges across our user base.

BLOGGER: In my own understanding, Property management system is the use of computer system in doing jobs in the hotel or an office/company. In doing paper works, accounting works and etc. it is very tasky to just do it manually so PMS is being presented in the different fields of industry to make their work easily done. In the hotel industry, with the use of this system reservations, guest bookings, check in/out, night auditing, yield management and other accounting and front/back office works are easily done with this system. This is very familiar in the hotel industry because this is the commonly used system.

Multi-agent system (MAS) is a system composed of multiple interacting intelligent agent. Multi-agent systems can be used to solve problems that are difficult or impossible for an individual agent or a monolithic system to solve. Intelligence may include some methodic, functional, procedural or algorithmic search, find and processing approach.
Topics where multi-agent systems research may deliver an appropriate approach include online trading, disaster response, and modelling social structures.
The agents in a multi-agent system have several important characteristics:
- Autonomy: the agents are at least partially autonomous
- Local views: no agent has a full global view of the system, or the system is too complex for an agent to make practical use of such knowledge
- Decentralization: there is no designated controlling agent (or the system is effectively reduced to a monolithic system)
Multi-agent systems can manifest self-organization as well as self-steering and other control paradigms and related complex behaviors even when the individual strategies of all their agents are simple.
When agents can share knowledge using any agreed language, within the constraints of the system's communication protocol, the approach may lead to a common improvement. Example languages are Knowledge Query Manipulation Language (KQML) or FIPA's Agent Communication Language (ACL).
MAS systems, also referred to as "self-organized systems", tend to find the best solution for their problems "without intervention". There is high similarity here to physical phenomena, such as energy minimizing, where physical objects tend to reach the lowest energy possible, within the physical constrained world. For example: many of the cars entering a metropolis in the morning, will be available for leaving that same metropolis in the evening.
The main feature which is achieved when developing multi-agent systems, if they work, is flexibility, since a multi-agent system can be added to, modified and reconstructed, without the need for detailed rewriting of the application. These systems also tend to be rapidly self-recovering and failure proof, usually due to the heavy redundancy of components and the self managed features.
Multi-agent systems are applied in the real world to graphical applications such as computer games. Agent systems have been used in films. They are also used for coordinated defence systems. Other applications include transportation, logistics, graphics, GIS as well as in many other fields. It is widely being advocated for use in networking and mobile technologies, to achieve automatic and dynamic load balancing, high scalability, and self-healing networks.
Blogger: On Multi-agent system, I am not so familiar with this system but according to its definition and characteristics they call it a "self-organized system" because it can fix the problem that may occur in the system of a company and find the best solution to it. This system i think can really help a lot in different company system because as stated above that it is "composed of multiple interacting intelligent agent" meaning it's like a person working but with a high IQ level. Compared to the PMS, MAS is more convenient but with this system also manpower will be lessen because less people could operate this kind of system.
