Abstract. One of the reasons for attending to agent technology is the evergrowing complexity of information systems and the increasing difficulty to foresee and plan for all potent...
We present a proof-technique for reducing the nondeterminbstract agent specifications in a BDI framework by means of refinement. We implement the operational semantics of agent sp...
We are developing an approach for P2P information systems, where the peers are modeled as autonomous agents. Agents provide services or give referrals to one another to help find...
Computational trust and reputation models have been recognized as one of the key technologies required to design and implement agent systems. These models manage and aggregate the...
Self-organizing multi-agent systems (MAS) use different mechanisms to mimic the adaptation exhibited by complex systems situated in unpredictable and dynamic environments. These m...
