This article describes an ontological model of norms. The basic assumption is that a substantial part of a legal system is grounded on the concept of agency. Since a legal system a...
Distributed Constraint Satisfaction Problems (DCSPs) provide a model to capture a broad range of cooperative multiagent problem solving settings. Researchers have generally propos...
Crowd simulation is a complex and challenging domain. Crowds demonstrate many complex behaviours and are consequently difficult to model for realistic simulation systems. Analyzing...
Interactive configurators are decision support systems assisting users in selecting values for parameters that respect given constraints. The underlying knowledge can be convenien...
