Research on agent communication languages has typically taken the speech acts paradigm as its starting point. Despite their manifest attractions, speech-act models of communicatio...
Agent communication languages such as KQML and the FIPA ACL serve as metalanguages to define software agent message-passing protocols. These metalanguages are incompatible with eac...
This paper addresses the design and verification of infrastructure for mobile computation. In particular, we study language primitives for communication between mobile agents. The...
We investigate the semantics for Knowledge Query Manipulation Language KQML and we propose a semantic framework for the language. KQML is a language and a protocol to support comm...
Work on agent communication languages has since long striven to achieve adequate speech act semantics; partly, the problem is that references to an agent’s architecture (in parti...
