Verification of multi-agent programs is a key problem in agent research and development. This paper focuses on multi-agent programs that consist of a finite set of BDI-based agent...
Abstract. This paper develops a highly expressive semantic framework for program refinement that supports both temporal reasoning and reasoning about the knowledge of a single agen...
We describe an approach to using one logic to reason about specifications written in a second logic. One level of logic, called the "reasoning logic", is used to state th...
In the paper, we consider the problem of supporting automated reasoning in a large class of knowledge representation formalisms, including terminological and epistemic logics, who...
“demonic” nondeterminism, representing abstraction from (or ignorance of) which of two program fragments will be executed. By introducing probabilistic nondeterminism into GCL,...
