In this paper we overview one specific approach to the formal development of multi-agent systems. This approach is based on the use of temporal logics to represent both the behavio...
In this paper we present methods to generate a Description Logic (DL) theory from a given First Order Logic (FOL) theory, such that each DL axiom is entailed by the given FOL theor...
Model-based diagnosis of technical systems requires both a simulation machinery and a logic calculus. The former is responsible for the system's behavior analysis, the latter...
T his paper outlines a formal theory for de fining action concepts in taxonomical knowledge representation languages, in a form closely related to description logics. The central p...
Building service-based architectures has become a major area of interest since the advent of Web services. Modelling these architectures is a central activity. Model-driven archite...
