Distributed constraint optimization (DCOP) has emerged as a useful technique for multiagent coordination. While previous DCOP work focuses on optimizing a single team objective, i...
This work develops an integrated approach to the verification of behaviourally rich programs, founded directly on operational semantics. The power of the approach is demonstrated ...
