Conversation policies codify the allowable exchanges of speech acts among agents as they execute specific types of tasks. Both the set of agents in a community, and the nature of...
The author describes a system for defining conversation policies that allows conversants to exchange explicit representations of how they use messages to get things done. This sy...
Intelligent agents in the agent language 3APL are computational entities consisting of beliefs and goals which make up their mental state. In this paper, we integrate communicatio...

In this paper we define the concept of conversation policies: declarative specifications that govern communications between software agents using an agent communication language. ...
Abstract. In this paper, we study the operational semantics of agent communication languages.We develop a basic multi-agent programming language for systems of concurrently operati...

This chapter aims to introduce the reader to the basic issues surrounding the design and implementation of intelligent agents. It begins by motivating the idea of an agent, present...
Virtual environments provide a rich and varied domain for intelligent agents, but questions of design and development in this context are still to be answered. An agent with multip...
: This paper describes a new approach for the creation of an adaptive system able to selectively combine dynamic multidimensional information sources to perform state estimation. T...
Mobile application components can be effectively and uniformly modeled in terms of autonomous agents moving across different context during execution. In this paper, we introduce a...
