In this paper we describe the Agent World Editor, a tool for designing multi-agent systems and generating executable agent code. The tool also unifies the handling of different a...
We propose an extension of alternating-time temporal logic, that can be used for reasoning about the behavior and abilities of agents under various rationality assumptions. Catego...
The design and development of open multi-agent systems (MAS) is a key aspect in agent research. We advocate that they can be realised as electronic institutions. In this paper we ...
The development of autonomous multi-agent systems acting upon the interests of one or more users involves the elicitation of preferences of these users. In decision theory, models...
In this paper we address the challenges associated with the verification of correctness of communication between agents in MultiAgent Systems. Our approach applies model-checking ...
