The COL institution (constructor-based observational logic) has been introduced as a formal framework to specify both generationand observation-oriented properties of software syst...
Designing concurrent or distributed systems with complex architectures while preserving a set of high-level requirements through all design steps is not a trivial task. Building up...
Rule-based modelling is particularly effective for handling the highly combinatorial aspects of cellular signalling. The dynamics is described in terms of interactions between part...
We present a proof-technique for reducing the nondeterminbstract agent specifications in a BDI framework by means of refinement. We implement the operational semantics of agent sp...
In knowledge engineering research the refinement of manually developed intelligent systems is still one of the key issues. Since scoring rules are an intuitive and easy to impleme...
