1 We have developed an approach to acquire complicated user optimization criteria and use them to guide iterative solution improvement. The eectiveness of the approach was tested ...
There is a growing recognition of the need to apply formal mathematical methods in the design of \high con dence" computing systems. Such systems operate in safety critical co...
Given a graph G and a drawing or layout of G, it is sometimes desirable to alter or adjust the layout. The challenging aspect of designing layout adjustment algorithms is to maint...
The aim of this paper is to provide a logical framework for the specification of autonomous Multi-Agent Systems (MAS). A MAS is autonomous in so far as it is capable of binding (...
Verification of multi-agent programs is a key problem in agent research and development. This paper focuses on multi-agent programs that consist of a finite set of BDI-based agent...
