Abstract. Much work using argumnentation frameworks treats arguments as enbstract, related by a uniform attack relation which always succeeds unless the attacker can itself be defe...
We propose Considerate Reasoning, a novel specification and verification technique based on object invariants. This technique supports succinct specifications of implementations wh...
The social laws paradigm represents an important approach to the co-ordination of behaviour in multi-agent systems. In this paper we examine the relationship between social laws an...
Systems provide a rich abstraction within which divers concepts of reasoning, acceptability and defeasibility of arguments, etc., may be studied using a unified framework. Two imp...
In this paper, we discuss a lightweight approach to eliminate the overhead due to implicit type arguments during higher-order unification of dependently-typed terms. First, we show...
