After arguing about the crucial importance of trust for Agents and MAS, we provide a definition of trust both as a mental state and as a social attitude and relation. We present t...
We describe a framework that can be used to model and predict the behavior of MASs with learning agents. It uses a difference equation for calculating the progression of an agent&...
A system based on the charge-discharge characteristics of the neural synapses of the visual path, is shortly introduced. The proposed system uses the LSR (length/speed ratio) descr...
Interval availability is a dependability measure defined by the fraction of time during which a system is in operation over a finite observation period. The computation of its d...
This paper examines architectural techniques for providing concurrent error detection in self-timed VLSI pipelines. Signal pairs from Differential Cascode Voltage Switch Logic are...
