DEC-POMDPs provide formal models of many cooperative multiagent problems, but their complexity is NEXP-complete in general. We investigate a sub-class of DEC-POMDPs termed multiage...
Asynchronous data communication mechanisms (ACMs) have been extensively studied as data connectors between independently timed concurrent processes. In previous work, an automatic ...
Past years have witnessed a growing interest in automated negotiation as a coordination mechanism for interacting agents. This paper presents a generic, problem- and domain-indepen...
The Shortest Common Supersequence Problem (SCSP) is a well-known hard combinatorial optimization problem that formalizes many real world problems. This paper presents a novel rando...

We present a formal approach to conception of a dedicated security infrastructure based on the exception handling in the protected agents. Securityrelated exceptions are identifie...
