The development of an interactive application is a complex task that has to consider data, behavior, intercommunication, architecture and distribution aspects of the modeled syste...
Abstract. We present and discuss a formal, high-level approach to the specification and composition of interaction protocols for service-oriented systems. This work is being develo...
Multi-agent systems (MASs), comprised of autonomous entities with the aim to cooperate to reach a common goal, may be viewed as computational models of distributed complex systems ...
Abstract. Multiagent cooperative negotiation is a promising technique for modeling and controlling complex systems. Effective and flexible cooperative negotiations are especially...
Abstract. Dynamic fault trees (DFTs) are a versatile and common formalism to model and analyze the reliability of computer-based systems. This paper presents a formal semantics of ...
