1. In a network including one or more interconnected agents, a method of communicating a message to one or more of the interconnected agents, the method comprising:
- receiving feedback including information about the network;
tracking the information about the network;
consulting a set of policy rules, the policy rules including logic which takes into account the tracked information about the network and including information about how messages should be sent based on the logic which takes into account the tracked information about the network; and
sending the message according to the information about how messages should be sent.

Abstract
Communicating a message using between networked agents. Some embodiments may be practiced, for example, in a network including one or more interconnected agents. A method facilities communicating a message to one or more of the interconnected agents. The method includes receiving feedback including information about the network. The information about the network is tracked. The method further includes consulting a set of policy rules. The policy rules include logic which takes into account the tracked information about the network. The policy rules further include information about how messages should be sent based on the logic which takes into account the tracked information about the network. The method also includes sending the message according to the information about how messages should be sent.
