Computing is increasingly ubiquitous, with everyday items including smart-phones, cars, clothes and household appliances gaining increasingly sophisticated computing and communication capacities. With this developing Internet of things, it is just a matter of time before devices have to collaborate and compete with other devices as well as users, in order to provide better services to mankind. \n\nThese embedded computers are increasingly autonomous and connected, and can thus be modeled as agents within multi-agent systems (MAS). Only 30 years ago it was science fiction that over a billion of people will exchange billions of e-mails on a daily basis. Today a scenario of millions of collaborating agents embedded in gadgets and appliances may also sound futuristic. However given the current rate of development in electronics, we will soon have to manage large scale MAS (LSMAS) where millions of agents exist, collaborate and compete with each other. \n\nOrganization theory provides the neccessary methodology to approach complex systems in order to design, implement and strategically manage them towards success. In this paper a state-of-the-art on organizational design techniques for agent systems will be presented, missing advancements will be identified and a roadmap for future developments with a number of application scenarios will be provided.
