Abstract:	This paper describes the SMACkers99 RoboCup team, developped at the Institut de Recherche en Informatique de Toulouse. Our research team has defined an adaptation process for artificial systems founded on self-organization between its parts (the agents), where cooperation is the criteria for organization evaluation and transformation. The decision process is local to each agent and led by suppression of un-cooperative situations. The combination of these individual decisions leads to a efficient collective behavior.
