For half a century, artificial intelligence researchers have focused on giving machines linguistic and mathematical-logical reasoning abilities, modeled after the classic linguist...
Many potential applications of virtual agents require an agent to conduct multiple conversations with users. An effective and engaging agent should modify its behavior in realisti...
When autonomous agents decide on their bidding strategies in real world auctions, they have a number of concerns that go beyond the models that are normally analyzed in traditiona...
This paper describes a protocol language which can provide agents with a flexible mechanism for coherent dialogues. The protocol language does not rely on centralised control or ...
We present an organisation infrastructure for open MultiAgent Systems built upon a role-based access control model (RBAC), which provides agents with means to enable and control a...
