The Goal Decomposition Tree model has been introduced in 2005 by Mermet et al. [9] to specify and verify the behaviour of an agent evolving in a dynamic environment. This model pr...
Description logics (DLs) and rules are formalisms that emphasize different aspects of knowledge representation: whereas DLs are focused on specifying and reasoning about conceptual...
