This paper presents the formal description of the Multilayered Multi-Agent Situated System (MMASS)1 which can be seen as a generalization of cellular spaces since it relaxes some constraints on uniformity, locality and closure. MMASS allows the description, representation and simulation of complex systems that explicitly require to consider spatial features. Different forms of interaction are possible within a MMASS: synchronous reaction between spatially adjacent agents and asynchronous and at-a-distance interaction through a field emission-propagation-perception mechanism.

Abstract
This paper presents the formal description of the Multilayered Multi-Agent Situated System (MMASS)1 which can be seen as a generalization of cellular spaces since it relaxes some constraints on uniformity, locality and closure. MMASS allows the description, representation and simulation of complex systems that explicitly require to consider spatial features. Different forms of interaction are possible within a MMASS: synchronous reaction between spatially adjacent agents and asynchronous and at-a-distance interaction through a field emission-propagation-perception mechanism.
