					                    Abstract
					
						Managing complex workflows in autonomous systems poses significant challenges as they scale. This tech talk explores strategies for optimizing agent-based architectures, where multiple agents interact and adapt in dynamic environments.
In this talk, we will be discussing distributed decision-making and coordination, bottlenecks, adaptive workflow reconfiguration and resilience, and real-world applications. Attendees can also look forward to gaining insights into designing, deploying, and managing complex agentic workflows, unlocking the full potential of autonomous systems. Includes notes based on practical perspectives, on improved efficiency, reduced errors, and enhanced flexibility.
