Autonomous agents are designed to reach goals that were pre-de ned by their operators. An important way to execute tasks and to maximize payo is to share resources and to cooperate...
Abstract. A major problem considering parallel computing is maintaining memory consistency and coherency, and ensuring ownership and access rights. These problems mainly arise from...
This paper describes an autonomous robot system designed to solve the challenging task of geocaching. Geocaching involves locating a goal object in an outdoor environment given on...

We examine the issues that arise in extending an estimatedregression (ER) planner to reason about autonomous processes that run and have continuous and discrete effects without th...
We propose conditions in which an autonomous agent could arise, and increase in complexity. It is assumed that on the primitive Earth there arose a recycling flow-reactor containi...
