The success of probabilistic model checking for discrete-time Markov decision processes and continuous-time Markov chains has led to rich academic and industrial applications. The ...
This paper studies the opinion dynamics model recently introduced by Hegselmann and Krause: (1) each agent in a group mantains a real number describing its opinion, (2) each agent ...
We introduce a new domain-independent framework for formulating and efficiently evaluating similarity queries over historical data, where given a history as a sequence of timestam...
Aging effects, environmental changes, thermal drifts, and soft and hard faults affect physical systems by changing their nature and behavior over time. To cope with a process evolu...
agent-oriented system. We show the complexity to be linear time for one of these logics and polynomial time for another, thus providing encouraging results with respect to the prac...
