Provision of services within a virtual framework for resource sharing across institutional boundaries has become an active research area. Many such services encode access to compu...
In order to succeed, agents playing games must reason about the mechanics of the game, the strategies of other agents, other agents’ reasoning about their strategies, and the ra...
The paper presents the computational model underlying new agent communication languages. The model, called STROBE, has been identified and two prototypical languages inspired by th...
Compositional semantics allow to reason about programs in an incremental way, thus providing the formal base for the development of modular data-flow analyses. The major drawback ...
Much recent work in computational morphology has presupposed that morphological operations are de nable on strings of phonological or graphemic objects. By contrast, theoretical l...
