DPBench: Structural Determinants of Multi-Agent LLM Coordination Under Simultaneous Resource Contention

Announce Type: replace Abstract: We present DPBench, a benchmark for evaluating coordination in multi-agent systems built from large language models. Existing benchmarks measure task-level success under a fixed protocol; the structural conditions under which coordination succeeds or fails at all have not been characterised. DPBench adapts the Dining Philosophers problem into a controlled testbed where the action protocol, the communication structure, and the group size each vary independently.
