In this paper we propose a new agent communication language which separates agent dialogue from any specific agent reasoning technology. This language is intended to address a nu...
Abstract. Using a probabilistic polynomial-time process calculus designed for specifying security properties as observational equivalences, we develop a form of bisimulation that j...

A novel style of multi-agent system specification and deployment is described, in which familiar methods from computational logic are re-interpreted to a new context. One view of ...
We propose a programming model for distributed concurrent systems with mobile objects in the context of a process calculus. Code mobility is induced by lexical scoping on names. O...
We consider the problem of assembling concurrent software systems from untrusted or partially trusted o -the-shelf components, using wrapper programs to encapsulate components and...
