Abstract. One of the most difficult problems in multiagent systems involves representing knowledge and beliefs of agents in dynamic environments. New perceptions modify an agent’...
In this paper we argue the case for integrating the distinctive functionalities of logic programs and production systems within an abductive logic programming agent framework. In t...
We outline elements of the Abstract Contract Calculator, a prototype language implemented in Haskell (a declarative programming language) in which we simulate agents executing abst...
The notion of maintenance often appears in the AI literature in the context of agent behavior and planning. In this paper, we argue that earlier characterizations of the notion of...
We develop a Belief-Desire-Intention (BDI) style agent-oriented programming language with special emphasis on the semantics of goals in the presence of the typical BDI failure han...
