Design constraints express essential behavioural properties of a software system. Two key elements of a scheme for enforcing design constraints are presented: a logic for describin...
Abstract— We consider a distributed multi-agent network system where the goal is to minimize an objective function that can be written as the sum of component functions, each of ...
The problem of integrating information from con icting sources comes up in many current applications, such as cooperative information systems, heterogeneous databases, and multi-a...
The tcc model is a formalism for reactive concurrent constraint programming. We present a model of temporal concurrent constraint programming which adds to tcc the capability of mo...
