In open systems where the components, i.e. the agents and the resources, may be unknown at design time, or in dynamic and self-organizing systems evolving with time, there is a ne...
Abstract. In this paper, we study the operational semantics of agent communication languages.We develop a basic multi-agent programming language for systems of concurrently operati...

We investigate the semantics for Knowledge Query Manipulation Language KQML and we propose a semantic framework for the language. KQML is a language and a protocol to support comm...
Work on agent communication languages has since long striven to achieve adequate speech act semantics; partly, the problem is that references to an agent’s architecture (in parti...
