Adaptation is an essential requirement for self–organizing multi–agent systems functioning in unknown dynamic environments. Adaptation allows agents, e.g., robots, to change th...
In this paper, we introduce a formal-language model for explicitly formalizing agent-environment interaction in a multiagent systems (MAS) framework: Conversational Grammar System...
Virtual laboratories can be characterized by their long-lasting, large-scale computations, where a collection of heterogeneous tools is integrated into data processing pipelines. S...
Component-based software construction is widely used in a variety of applications, from embedded environments to grid computing. However, errors in these applications and systems ...
Component-based software structuring principles are now commonly and successfully applied at the application level; but componentisation is far less established when it comes to b...
