Pattern analysis consists in determining the shape of the set of solutions of the constraint store at some program points. Our basic claim is that pattern analyses can all be desc...
We investigate a prototypical agent-based model, the Naming Game, on random geometric networks. The Naming Game is a minimal model, employing local communications that captures th...

Autonomy has always been conceived as one of the defining attributes of intelligent agents. While the past years have seen considerable progress regarding theoretical aspects of a...
This paper surveys previous work on combining planning techniques with expressive representations of knowledge in description logics to reason about tasks, plans, and goals. Descr...
