Variations in the semiconductor fabrication process results in variability in parameters between transistors on the same die, a problem exacerbated by lithographic scaling. The re...
We propose union types for statically typed class-based objectoriented languages as a means to enhance the flexibility of subtyping. As its name suggests, a union type can be con...
This article aims to provide foundations for a new approach to Agent Communication Languages (ACLs). First, we present the theory of signalling acts. In contrast to current approa...
Computational Grids are large scale computing system composed of geographically distributed resources (computers, storage etc.) owned by self interested agents or organizations. T...
Abstract. We describe an approach for compiling dynamic preferences into logic programs under the answer set semantics. An ordered logic program is an extended logic program in whi...
