Abstract. Symmetry reduction is a technique to combat the state explosion problem in temporal logic model checking. Its use with symbolic representation has suffered from the proh...
In this paper, we develop a symbolic representation for timed concurrent constraint (tccp) programs, which can be used for defining a lightweight model–checking algorithm for re...
We develop an approach in which we model communication protocols via commitment machines. Commitment machines supply a content to protocol states and actions in terms of the social...
Previous attempts to capture the phenomenon of output don't care sequencesfor a componentin an FSM network have been incomplete. We demonstrate that output don't care se...
The aim of this paper is to show a method that is able to detect inconsistencies in the reasoning carried out by a deliberative agent. The agent is supposed to be provided with a h...
