: Software agents comprise a new area for research and soon will be embedded and ubiquitous in modern computing systems. In this formative phase, it is important to develop compreh...
Abstract. An important aspect of agent autonomy is the decision making capability of the agents. We discuss several issues that agents need to deliberate about in order to decide w...
To ful ll the needs of its deep space exploration program, NASAis actively supporting research and development in autonomy software. However, the reliable and cost-e ective develop...
