We show that a wide class of bidirectional data-flow analyses and program optimizations based on them admit declarative descriptions in the form of type systems. The salient feat...
In open systems where the components, i.e. the agents and the resources, may be unknown at design time, or in dynamic and self-organizing systems evolving with time, there is a ne...
Abstract-- In this paper we present the communication architecture of the DALI Logic Programming Agent-Oriented language and we discuss its semantics. We have designed a meta-level...
When it comes to building robot controllers, highlevel programming arises as a feasible alternative to planning. The task then is to verify a high-level program by finding a lega...
