This paper develops a model for exceptions and an approach for incorporating them in commitment protocols among autonomous agents. Modeling and handling exceptions is critical for...
Discussions of agent interactions frequently characterize behavior as “coherent,” “collaborative,” “cooperative,” “competitive,” or “coordinated.” We propose a...

According to the progress of high-speed networks, many communication protocols are specified as concurrent systems. Such systems can be modeled as concurrent deterministic FSMs (D...
We investigate the properties of a multiagent system where each (distributed) agent locally perceives its environment. Upon perception of an unexpected event, each agent locally c...

In this paper, we introduce the notion of communication channel into a multiagent system. We formalize the system in term of logic with Belief modality, where each possible world i...
