Protocols enable unambiguous, smooth interactions among agents. Commitments among agents are a powerful means of developing protocols. Commitments enable flexible execution of pro...
This paper describes West2East, a Computer-Aided Agent-Oriented Software Engineering toolkit aimed at supporting the implementation of multiagent systems. West2East exploits langua...
This paper is concerned with the problem of obtaining predictable interactions between groups of agents in open environments when individual agents do not expose their bdi logic. ...

Successful interaction between autonomous agents is contingent on those agents making decisions consistent with the expectations of their peers -- these expectations are based on ...
Commitment-modeled protocols enable flexible and robust interactions among agents. However, existing work has focused on features and capabilities of protocols without considerin...
