Adding ABoxes to a Description Logic with Uniqueness Constraints via Path Agreements
We now know that the addition of a concept constructor called a Path Functional Dependency (PFD) to the Boolean-complete description logic DLF leads to undecidability of ABox consi...

A unified framework for multi-agent agreement
Multi-Agent Agreement problems (MAP) - the ability of a population of agents to search out and converge on a common state - are central issues in many multi-agent settings, from d...
