Abstract. We distill Penrose’s argument against the “artificial intelligence premiss”, and analyze its logical alternatives. We then clarify the different positions one can...
One of the most difficult problems in Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) involves representing the knowledge and beliefs of an agent which performs its tasks in a dynamic environment. New p...
Abstract This work studies the properties of finite automata recognizing vectors with real components, encoded positionally in a given integer numeration base. Such automata are us...
We show how to combine trust management theories with nonce-based cryptographic protocols. The strand space framework for protocol analysis is extended by associating formulas from...

We show that characteristic formulae for nite-state systems up to bisimulationlike equivalences (e.g., strong and weak bisimilarity) can be given in the simple branching-time temp...
