Abstract. This paper explores the use of temporal logics in the context of communication protocols for multiagent systems. We concentrate on frameworks where protocols are used to ...
We sketch how to express typical features of agent communication protocols in a simple temporal logic and show that conformance verification at runtime reduces to a generalised f...
Temporal logics are well suited for the specification and verification of systems of communicating agents. In this paper we adopt a social approach to agent communication, where c...
Interactions between agents in an open system such as the Internet require a significant degree of flexibility. A crucial aspect of the development of such methods is the notion o...
We present a general logic of explicit knowledge represented as finite sets of logical formulae which can evolve by nondeterministic reasoning and communication. It is partly bas...
