with existing analysis tools. Modular reasoning principles such as abstraction, compositional refinement, and assume-guarantee reasoning are well understood for architectural hiera...
Deductive, mode-estimation has become an essential component of robotic space systems, like NASA's deep space probes. Future robots will serve as components of large robotic ...
This paper explores the performance of a simple model agent using a reactive controller in situations where, from an external perspective, a solution that relies on internal states...
Formal methods can improve the development of systems with high quality requirements, since they usually o er a precise, nonambiguous speci cation language and allow rigorous veri ...
Robots are autonomous agents whose actions are performed in the real world during a period of time. There are a number of general constraints on such actions, for example that the ...
