Object-based programming is becoming more and more popular and is currently conquering the world of distributed programming models. In object-based systems access control is often...
Abstract. In this paper, we consider the issue of designing agents that successfully balance the amount of time spent in reconsidering their intentions against the amount of time s...
We present a snapshot of work in progress to define a formal model of the composition technology which underpins Subject-oriented and Aspectoriented programming.
Modern industrial-strength user interface toolkits are usually described informally, in terms of implementation artifacts such as objects and imperative state. While the practical...
RDT is a graphical formal modelling language in which the modeller works by constructing diagrams of the processes in their model which they then join together to form complete sy...
We discuss the representation of knowledge and of belief from the viewpoint of decision theory. While the Bayesian approach enjoys general-purpose applicability and axiomatic foun...
Abstract. Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMSs) are adopted to process different goods in different mix ratios allowing firms to react quickly and efficiently to changes in produ...
Embedded devices like smart cards can now run multiple interacting applications. A particular challenge in this domain is to dynamically integrate diverse security policies. In th...
The paper presents the Multi Agent System (MAS) designed for the large scale parallel computations. The special kind of diffusionbased scheduling enables to decompose and allocate...

We present a formal model and a simple architecture for robust pseudorandom generation that ensures resilience in the face of an observer with partial knowledge/control of the gen...
